Chemo day +1

Well I didn't sleep much last night, same as after the last session. This time I didn't get to sleep until about 5:00am - I got up and read quite a bit. Of course Matthew came in at six, but Sam took him out and I did get a few hours sleep. I'm a bit tired now, but I have survived the day. I actually took a load of old furniture down to the tip today to clear out the garage.

The tingling in my tongue is more of a metallic taste which I had last time. It's listed as a side effect of Dacarbazine, so I don't think it is an allergy problem.

Still no hair loss yet I'm afraid. Maybe I should claim yesterday's haircut on expenses. Perhaps I should get some advice from my MP.

Overall I think I'm feeling better than last time.

We might let you have one glass of wine and two if Sam is not looking! Take care lots of love and prayers.
