It was torturously LONG!! I thought that my first appt. at 8:45 am was to set up for the chemo. It was, but the chemo was a long way off. I talked to a nurse and psychology intern, a nutritionist whose sheet of foods I should eat had all of my staples anyway, so I made her job easy. She said that she wanted me to increase my protein intake about 30%, though, and I said, GREAT! We had time for lunch and wandering around. The chemo appt. was at 2 pm. I was taken to the room, prepped with pills and water, and waited. And waited. Some chemo started, no allergic reactions, all good. Wait some more. Wait some more. Get up to take horrendous 5 minute piss with left hand on the wall for support. Go back in room. Wait. Oh, good more baggies. These will take 2 hours. Ugh. It is already past 4 pm. After all that, the pump came that I carry around on a waist pack until Saturday. We left at 7:40 pm.
