Second cycle

It's been a rough week as the second cycle of chemo draws to an end. I am feeling very jaded, often exhausted after a few hours work, and certainly not too mentally sharp. There is a faint and distinctly unpleasant sensation of metallic miasma as I breathe, probably the residue of the capecitabine I take morning and evening. I am counting down the remaining few days. From Friday my body will slowly clear its drug residue as I await the start of the next cycle, with Avastin infusion on Tuesday. More cheerful postings will undoubtedly follow!
