Bloaty Day

Do you know how it feels to gain 12 pounds in 3 days? I do! Terrible! Barbara had the good sense not to comment on it yesterday. Other than that, my first two days of chemo went fine. I put a heating pad on my stomach which helped soothe my football sized spleen! I may get a small treatment of rituximab today, but am waiting for the doctor to decide.

Barbara and I enjoyed some sister time watching The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society on Netflix yesterday.  With all the medical interruptions it took 4 hours to watch it, but it was a great movie!

Update: make that 18 pounds in 4 days! The doctors have assured me that no one has ever exploded from bloat! I don't know if I believe them!
