Side effects

So round one of chemo the main side effects I had were nausea and fatigue, which was the worst the day of and day after and slowly started getting better with each day. I think by about Wednesday I feel like myself again except for a bit more tired than usual. That is something I will just have to manage and only do what I can each day, not push myself too much.  The one other side effect so far is a tingling in my feet. The doctor mentioned this might happen in the feet and hands, so I will mention it at my next chemo on Thursday. I am hoping  the side effects don't get much worse than this but we will see. I know as things progress my body may be less resilient so it is hard to predict. 

I still have my hair! Which is a bit surprising as I expected it to be falling out  already. Maybe a few more days.
