Cycle 6, Day 2 Summary

I believe the long-promised cumulative effects of chemotherapy have finally cumulated. This was not a great day. 

The problem started at 2:00 am when this cycle's surprise side effect -- insomnia -- kicked in. I got to be awake from 2:00 am until 5:30 am when I gave up on making it to work and went back to sleep instead. I slept until 3:00 in the afternoon, which was therapeutic but sort of counterproductive.

Shortly after waking up, I was surprised to find that my neuropathy has now expanded to my feet. So now I get painful tingling in both my fingers and my toes. Big fun. But as long as you don't go barefoot, it seems to stay more or less under control. So now I just have to continually wear gloves and slippers. 

Aside from that, it's pretty much been a rerun of the five previous cycles. 

I'm growing tired of reruns.
