After getting done with the Dr. we went up to the infusion floor and received the chemo; Ramicurimab and paclitaxel. First was some Normal Saline because they thought I might be a bit dehydrated after seeing the blood results. Then premeds; antinausea, and benedryl. This time the benedryl really got to me and I was so woozy that I felt kind of drunk in a way. Definitely lethargic and heavy. It was weird and eventually I quit fighting it and went to sleep. I think I only woke once when they changed the infusion to the paclitaxel and that was another weird feeling when that started. It literally felt like a wave passed over me from my head to my toes. the nurses indicated that some patients feel flushing, but I don't remember ever feeling it with such an intensity before...very weird.
I found it funny that after the infusion they just let me get up and out of there. For the CT contrast they make you wait a half and hour before you can go. I guess if it doesn't happen during the infusion, then they are satisfied it won't happen later....
