Oh Jeebus, the hunger ;p

Chemo the first three days went well. Better then I thought if you all were wondering. I’m the baby of the Womens Cancer Center there so I get pampered hah Xp. Anywho, it made me sick, which it’s supposed to… kinda well side effect wise. I couldn’t tell if I wanted to eat or puke. That freakin’ sucks, both felt the same, like a hungry “hurrly” pang in my stomach.

But yesterday, after I took my steroids (yes, they are legal, not trying to get ahead in any sport here.) I was famished. Still am, I cannot stop thinking about FOOD. I was up till 2am and I had to get up at 4 to get something to munch on and now I’m up again. I’m truly hungry, like stomach growling and everything to the point of discomfort. It’s starting to tick me off but the good thing is all these high calorie foods I’m eating (it’s in my diet haha who woulda thunk it) are touching my mouth and burning up instantly because of the medication.

Right now the highlight of my day will be going out shopping and getting more food. Sick isn’t it? It’s just I’m craving things like never before and it’s nice knowing that I can eat anything I want minus fried and spicy foods for the next 5 months.

I’m going to eat my family out of house and home if these effects keep it up.
