Chemo effects

It is Tuesday evening...just finished dinner. No nausea; however, I'm very tired. Pain is about the same. The fatigue may be from gym workout. managed to get a long ride through the surrounding hills...put the Porsche through a vigoros workout on winding roads. Love that car.

I'm down to 209 that's 30 lbs below my high this year. I'm ready to drop another pants size-my goal is 175. The last time I was 175 was the late 60s.

I plan to adjust my medications, which I don't need like blood pressure and some diabetic and colesterol drugs. Taking more drugs then needed may also be responsible for my fatigue.

Still have a positive attitude although I tend to be a bit grouchy
