I was super-wired during the infusion on Monday. That feeling got pretty intolerable near the end of the irinotecan infusion. I was exhausted, yet very jittery. The nurse checked on me and seemed concerned. After someone else came in and they noticed my slurred speech (this did happen for me at the end of my first irinotecan infusion), they decided to give me something to alleviate that (can’t recall what it was).
I slept ok that night, and then the past two days have really been all about major fatigue. It’s like I crashed from the weird all-day mania that happened on Monday. Yesterday and today, I’ve been too exhausted to do really anything. Haven’t checked social media, and have had a hard time replying to anyone. Pretty dense brain fog — particularly today. Went in and got the pump disconnected this evening — that’s a wrap for infusion 3.
Currently on the fence about returning to work tomorrow AM. If tomorrow is anything like today, I won’t be able to function at work. Will see in the morning.

Glad to hear you are through infusion 3! As you may notice looking out the window, early morning fog has gathered in sympathy to your mental climate; as the mist melts away in the progress of the day, I hope yours does the same!
Appreciate it, my friend! Yes, I have greatly enjoyed the mist and the rain — it’s all calming to me! I do like this analogy, as well, and I’m looking forward to my “mental mist” dissipating, as there is currently more of it than I would like. Fortunately, I can look back at the past three “off weeks” and know that I fully bounced back in each one. So, things should be normalizing over the weekend.
Cheers!
