Filgrastim Injection #4

Well, today is day 4. Tomorrow is the big day and the last injection. I'm definitely more nervous than I thought I'd be and I'm looking forward to getting the filgrastim out of my system.

I'll be leaving soon for the hotel because we have to be at the hospital at 6:30am! Good thing the hospital is only a couple blocks away!

I took some Nyquil last night so I could get some sleep and it definitely helped. I think I was asleep before 11. Since I'm home, my mom came in and laid down with me and got a heating pad for me. I always want my mom when I feel icky so I was glad to be home. The heating pad was really helpful! I'm so lucky to have such an amazing mother. 

I woke up around 6am and took a Tylenol; my mom saw my light on and came in and rubbed my legs for me and I went back to sleep until 9 or so. I was awake until at least 11 or maybe even noon but I fell back to sleep for a good amount of the afternoon. I spent most of today in bed just because I could. I've been fairly achy on and off all day and still feeling kind of nauseous on and off too but thankfully no vomiting. My head hurts too. Pretty much all of the same side-effects as the last couple days. My mom was nice enough to bring me home some soup for dinner since I haven't really been eating much. 

Wish me luck and send lots of prayers my way and to the recipient!
