~ Day 18 ~ Strange side effects

The last two days posts weren't very much fun, I know. I had to get everyone up to speed on how this all started. It's kinda like having to explain the first half of a movie to someone who showed up late, ten times over. Not that I mind but I need to save my energy for the very fun side effects of my new drug friends. They all bring a special somethin' to the show. So in no particular order of their onset or annoyance factor, here's the list of ones I wasn't expecting: Swollen face, swollen ankles and feet (kankle-lite), blisters on the bottom of feet, rash on my hands, metal taste in my mouth, tooth ache, losing my hair, gray-hair growing in way quicker, cracked old-lady looking skin, the strangest color of pee I've ever seen, how do I put this one?.....an eagerness to see Matt, and my personal fave......pimples. Yeah, who knew the drugs would make me look 16 again except all tired and haggard? Ah, the joys of cancer!
