My Bone Marrow Transplant: Day 15

Struggled to wake up the entire day and slept until around 2:00p.  The drowsiness was most likely a layover from the drugs administered the previous night for body aches and a headache.  The body aches felt like the ones you have when you get the flu.  I had no strength to do anything and even simply walking the halls hurt.

My blood counts have become the highlight of my mornings.  WBC was .2 today and that means they are actually moving in the right direction - up.

Still felt tired and nauseated and highly doubted I would be going home today.  I was able to eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner in spite of vomiting the day before.  I knew I needed to keep trying to get my stomach to behave if I were to be released by Thursday.

The afternoon was better for me and I was able to shower and do my walking laps around the floor.  The evening finished with me turning in early for a good night's sleep.
