Feeling better

Finally started feeling better this afternoon after I realized this morning that I was having difficulty swallowing again.  Duh!  Penny (Dr. Greenberg’s nurse) told me to double up on my fentanyl patches (50 mcg/hr total now) and I feel SO much better this evening already.  I was actually nauseous this morning, but the Zofran helped.  Didn’t “eat” too much today, of course, since I didn’t really start feeling better till about 4 pm.  You’d think I’d learn by now what the darn symptoms of pain are in my body.  I can be such a doofus sometimes.  Hoping that tomorrow is better than the last few days and Saturday even better.  I’ve got an evening opera coming up on Saturday, so we’ll see how I fare with that.

Friends are still feeding the family.  I haven’t really had to cook any since I stopped working and it’s looking like that’ll continue for the foreseeable future.  Chicken spaghetti coming tomorrow! 🙂  Too bad I don’t get to eat any of this stuff…
