Promacta arrives today..

My platelets keep clumping so I haven't had numbers in a month, but Promacta shipped! I'm one sleepy girl. Brain fogged n head n body ache allatime. I've cried hard this week. Good holiday, just tired. 2nd semester is gonna be tuff.
I get my 24 week labs next week since offices are closed. I feel like a machine! Keep moving. Keep pushing.
My eye Dr looked me over - all is good. He upped my contacts Rx. I could barely see to grade papers or record them.
Wearing the wig part time. Itches like crazy. Really poor... Bought the cheap Vaseline intensive care lotion? Rash on whole body and it's gone in 2 days!
Just rambling n crying. I try not to communicate about all my SE. I can depress family n friends real fast.
That said, I made egg rolls last night n gonna make cinnamon rolls today. Perfecting low sodium, low fat, veggie protein recipes. Gotta keep it fresh.
I write posts n then delete.. Gonna hit send.
Tired - oh so tired, Karen :)

Karen, its ok to vent. I actually find it comforting to hear people being honest about their symptoms. I'm sorry you are having a rough time. It's ok to cry and be tired. I'm praying you will have a better day today.
