I've had a few random thoughts regarding my treatment so far that I wanted to share. For one, I am baffled by the way the side effects come and go so quickly (other than the joint pain and body aches...at least so far, they don't ever go away). As I wrote a couple of weeks ago about my MAJOR memory issues, I haven't had issues with that since. I also have the night sweats/hot flashes very randomly....I really don't get them very often, but I'm not sure what makes that suddenly come on and then not come back for a week.
I'm really scared for how painful my body aches and joint pain are going to become. I have only had them for a couple of weeks, and I'm worried that they're going to get worse. I already can't find medication that works (other than the Darvocet, that's been pulled from the market, so I can't get that anymore), so what am I going to do if and when it gets worse?!
I don't know if I'm going to do the next round. My husband and my mom don't want me to. I see their point in the fact that I'm in a lot of pain, but I also don't want these last 3 months to be a waste!! I haven't spoken to my doctor about that, but it's in the back of my mind. I've read that a lot of people's side effects get worse, which I'm terrified of happening.
Anyway, those are my thoughts for the moment. :)
