A close up of my weekly Chemo Meds
I don't think you've gotten a good shot of what the chemo itself looked like so here's a pic and explanation: The Orange stuff is the Adriamiacin, a vesicant (causes blistering on skin), basically the nasty stuff I had to be hooked up for 24/3; next to it on the left is Ifosfamide, a clear liquid, that can lead to internal bleeding, I had to get it 4/5; the little bottle on the far left is just some albumen which was administered each time before the Ifosfamide. What you don't see; Mesna, an injection prior to Ifosfamide to prevent internal bleeding; hydration, TKO(To Keep Open); Zofran , the anti-nausea injection, decadron, a steroid and anti-nausea injection.
