The new sleeping pills seem to work. I slept exactly 12 hours last night.
I had such a long list of things to do.
First to do was a good shower. My leg dressings also needed changing. I removed the compression stocking, and all the bandages. My leg looks better than my arm. A LONG hot shower felt great, and I washed my leg many times.
I then re-applied the bandages, and the compression stocking. The only open sore on my leg is the old basil cell sore that has been there 15 years.
At chemo I use my cell phone to chat to Maddie, surf the web, do my blog, and listen to music. Last time I left home with cell charge at 100% and got home with 16%. So today I went to the Chinese mall to buy a power bank to charge the cell phone. It is a small battery pack that the cell phone plugs into to recharge it.
A 10 Amp Hour (AH) pack would recharge my phone about 3 times. They make from small 2 AH up to 19 AH cell phone re chargers.
One place I went to had many. One 10 AH caught my eye at only R300. The man behind the counter said it was junk. :-) I asked why he was selling junk, and he said it was old stock, and most he had sold came back with angry customers. He showed me a good 10 AH one that was a bit pricy. I got online, and found that Amazon gave it a 5 star rating. I told him it was a bit to much money. He then said he would upgrade it to a 12 AH one for the same price. I said OK. As I was leaving, he called me back and tossed me the cheaper 10 AH junk one. He said I can keep it, but to forget where I got it. :-) So I am very ready for the next chemo session..
I worked a bit on my solar system box. It is coming along.
I have been taking the anti-histamine pills, but my arm still looks splotchy.
