Life and Living

Some of us older folks have difficulty getting out of the bed at night when they have to go to the bathroom and it is cold in the bedroom...  whereas, there are others who get out of the bed regardless of the temperature in the bedroom, once they have to go to the bathroom...

In what camp do you sit?

My nights are typically spent with having to go to the bathroom at least twice each night as a matter of routine...  a third time seems to be optional for me and may or may not take place...

I don't worry about it anymore...  I just get up and pee.

But, every once in a while, my upper body sweats and that is totally unpredictable as well. These sweats are not as profuse as they used to be, where I had to put on a bathrobe because both sheets were wet.

Night sweats occur from not just having cancer(s) sometimes but also results from the treatments that are used to fight the cancer(s)...  so, in my case there is a double whammy.

Fortunately, both my cancers are under control and my days are developing new routines; however, once in a while, I simply feel bad...  Not tired...  Not fatigued...  Not nauseas...  and NOT experiencing any cold or flu-like symptoms and yet, I just don't feel well or as some say...  don't feel 100%.

Of course, I think a lot of people have those days and have no underlying illnesses that might precipitate them...  it is just part of life and living.
