Chemo Brain
Chemo brain is a common term used by cancer survivors to describe thinking and memory problems that can occur during and after cancer treatment. Chemo brain can also be called chemo fog, cancer-related cognitive impairment or cognitive dysfunction.
Last night, I had night sweats again... not bad, just a mild episode, but it still wet the sheets... so, I slept on the other side of the mattress.
This morning, I am in a fog...
tired...
confused...
without an appetite...
My cats don't understand me when I am this way... but, they do still accept me... and, patiently wait on the foot of the bed until I awake so that I can give them a treat... then, one wants a drink out of the bathroom faucet while the other one wants me to check their food bowl in the other room, and the third one (the Siamese) wants me to give him some attention as if I have not been around for years... although, if that were really the case, he would ignore me because of being pissed off that I abandoned him.
Today, this was my routine.
Tomorrow, it may be the same or it may be different.
However... I am always tired... always feeling like I need more sleep...
I have been up for 4 hours and I am still not hungry... perhaps, it is the coffee that has filled my stomach sufficiently enough.
