Aches and Pains

I think I spoke too soon last night how wonderful this new chemo drug is. I had good days since Monday but that changed today. I woke up feeling good but before noon my body felt tired and weak. The pain is from waist down. I don't know if it was from my workout yesterday afternoon or from the chemo/Neulasta. Taxotere's (chemo med) and Neulasta's biggest side effect is body/joint pain and boy am I feeling them right now.

I decided to take a rest before noon and had a nap. I think that helped a little bit because I was able to do some errands after I woke up and was also able to cook dinner. But I'm feeling the pain again. My taste buds feels weird too. Gosh I hope it is not that awful metal taste again. I hate that feeling. My appetite is still normal.

I'm just tired. The nurses and doctors told me to listen to what my body is telling me and I think it is telling me to slow down. I think I will. I also have to take the medications to ease the pain. Hopefully these aches and pains will be gone tomorrow.
