So today I woke up with arm pain. More like an ache. I felt around and the vein that they had used for my chemo was now hard like a tendon and painful to the touch. Dammit. I was supposed to get a port-a-cath inserted to make chemo treatments easier (a port is something placed under the skin to allow for easy venous access) but they couldn't get me in before my first chemo. Now my vein is sclerosed. Thank god the port is going in the next round.

other than that- I have a newfound love for Adderral. Right now it's the only thing that can keep me awake and functioning for at least 6 hrs.
