Today, I went for my 4th dose of ABVD chemo. Unfortunately, the Vinblastine (V from ABVD) was out of stock, but… there was only one 10mg bottle and I needed 6mg. Thanks to Jehovah that I got it for me. But, as I said, 'unfortunately' for any other person who would need that same kind of medicine for today. I asked the nurse what would happen if in a next dose, there's one component missing. She explained multiple ways of getting it via foundations or another hospital. Phew! I'm prepared in case it affects us again.
About this dose, it was the best, almost no pain, no freeze, no fever, all good! I just got more dark stains on my hands and feet. As I said, that's just a cosmetic side effect. Nothing to worry about. 😛
Now, I'm writing this from home. I'm feeling normal, just a little bit of fatigue, nothing serious. I have already drunk 2L of water, and I will continue for the rest of the night. Drinking a lot of water is a way to protect my body, by doing this I'm forcing my system to drain the toxicity of the chemo cocktail.
That's it for today! Last thing, today I was reading these comforting words:
Psalm 46:1: God is our refuge and strength, A help that is readily found in times of distress.
