Another update..

So my medical notes now tell all the nurses at the oncology centre that I have crap veins which are really hard to get a cannular into. I don't know - you have ONE little incident where your body goes into shock after the third unsuccessful attempt to get a line in to take blood, you pass out and have to be brought round just ONE time, and you end

So then, shall I camp out in your veins and mug passing cells? *winks*

But in all seriousness, I fervently hope that the side-effects are limited.

Oh, me too.. ;-) Although the "things tasting different" could be interesting for a couple of days.

And anyway, I have to go through SOME unpleasantness, otherwise my Livejournal for the next three weeks is going to be SO boring. ;-)

Pfft, you're under no obligation to entertain us, promise. ;)

And I can sort of empathise on things tasting funny or different - pregnancy has seemed to make things taste decidedly odd here and again. For example - tomato soup tastes REALLY sweet now! >__

Congratulations! Be prepared for all sorts of funky preggers-related changes ;)

I'll drink to the side effects being minimal, since clearly you can't ;)

Oh hardy har! ;-)

Actually, they said that there's no real reason for me to not have a drink if I fancy one, although I should avoid getting rat-arsed. They did, however, say that I probably wouldn't feel like it though.

I guess for the next few weeks I have to actually take notice of my body when it tells me things, and do what it wants - "Stop doing things now and have a lie down. Put some of that in me please, and don't put THAT anywhere near your mouth or so help me I'l... etc" ;-)
