Trish's day could be summed up with two words: sleepy and itchy.
The anti-seizure medicine they give her to prevent a seizure from he busulfan (chemo drug) makes her itchy and unlike the past itchies from regular chemo -- there are no hives or outward signs, just lots of itching. The Benadryl -- given to stop the itching -- makes her sleepy.
Tonight they will try something other than Benadryl -- because it really isn't controlling the itchiness too well. Other than that she is feeling well. Her blood counts are on the way down -- which is one of the goals of the chemo. All is as normal as it can be for now. She will likely start feeling poorly in the next few days. Keep the prayers and good cheer coming.
