Rest week

No chemo this week.  It's my rest week.  First round of gemzar and cisplatin complete.  Platelets are down to 34.  Hopefully I can recover by next week.

The skin on the back of my neck is starting to peel.  I feel confidant that we hit the neck node pretty hard.

Nasal congestion has gotten pretty bad with flu like symptoms but no fever.  It's bad enough that I cannot breathe at night to get a good night's sleep.  Thank you gemzar.

08/25 164
09/21 163
