Despite our annoyance at having to wait three hours past our appointment time to get set up in the chemo room on Saturday, things went reasonably well. During Saturday's treatment of both Rituximab and Bendamustine, Eric started feeling nauseous which continued through the night along with the usual flu-like symptoms. They were bit milder than in the past, plus, knowing that it is not going to last for a very long time makes it a bit more tolerable for Eric. Yesterday was Bendamustine only which meant more nausea all day and not eating. By about 8 PM, Eric was able to eat a banana and keep it down. By this morning, Monday, he felt fine and went to work. He'll probably be fatigued this week but it seems the worst is behind us. Only two more treatments left! The next one is 4/12.
