Neupogen, the drug to increase my white blood cells. It's a shot I take for 10 days inbetween chemo. About day 5 of shots the pain starts. It is MUCH worse at night (wish I could figure that out! )... So Kelly says take a pill before it starts BECAUSE you know it is going to happen! But I hate taking things! Tonight however the pain got so bad so quickly, I was literally crying! So I took the hydrocodone & Aleve and a shower and it has brought the level down to about half...which is manageable...definitely talking to the doctor about it tomorrow...in any event I will be taking the pill before the pain starts from now on (I hate that!)
Oh, I am so sorry for you. You shouldn't have to experience pain on top of what you are going through.
ReplyDeleteIt really was my own fault. The doctor agreed with Kelly she says my pain threshold is so high I need to start to look at it like when I notice something to take the pill rather than waiting for full on pain.
