Week 3 Chemo and Doctor Visitation

Well last week was the 3rd week of treatment and I visited with Dr Schaefer. He was a little disappointed that the KRAS results where not available and would be delayed until this week, he told me that he was mainly interested in finding out if there was any mutations, so that he could adjsut the treatment if he needed to. Dr. Schaefer did tell me that he wanted to give me 10 weeks of treatment with 2 weeks off from them. So, I've decided to take Thanksgiving off and another undisclosed week, yet to be named, LOL.
Week 4 has been pretty normal with Halloween over and Day Light Savings Time, now active, I'm getting use to the lost hour and going about my scheduled day. Thursday is my next treatment and we'll see what happens, since I was not given my November schedule. As you seen in my earlier post, my day started off pretty "normal", but then again what is normal anymore? I've noticed after last weeks treatment that I'm experiencing Chemo Brain a little more. Chemo Brain is where you loose your train of thought and stop talking and just zone out for a few seconds. Carmen and I was out running some errands and was hit with Chemo Brain. I'll discuss this with the Nurses this week to see what they have to say about it.
