My first Doxil dose was yesterday. There was one minor hiccup. I had a "reaction" to the steroids. I think it might have been the sensation from the power port they installed on Wednesday. I got flushed, my blood pressure was high, and I felt like my heart was rushing. I did end up finishing the dose, though they added benadryl before and more IV fluids.
Positive note: I think that my pleural effusion is clearing. I already feel so much better on that front. I'm hoping it's not the steroids that is doing it. I have had no real side effects other than some fatigue, but I'm taking my anti-nausea medications and that could account for some of the nausea.
I tried some new Juicing, and I don't like the taste of the juice I made. If anyone has any suggestions/recipes it would be appreciated. I know that juicing probably is NOT going to work, but I like trying it just in case. The combination was carrot, spinach, apple, and pineapple.
