Tuesday, 2/8 -- Hope to be home this afternoon.

I found the literature of the chemo drugs that I had taken last. No more guessing as to what drug is having what effect on me:

Taxotere (Docetaxel)
Cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan)

These are the drugs that kicked, and continue to kick, my ass. I think Procrit has also contributed to my generally poor condition. They advertise that one on TV with that old lady crossing guard. You know the commercial.

Today's goal at the doctor's office: NOT to be admitted into the hospital for any reason. I may have to get some Xrays on my legs. I can deal with that. I just want to come home today.

Also on today's list is to find out when I can expect to get some relief from all this pain and lingering side effects.

I sincerely hope that the damage is not permanent.
