I feel the sleepy undertow again

It is kind of amazing to feel the side effects of the Interferon coming on again.  Whereas before they were confusing, surprising, chaotic and alarming, now they are like the return of an old friend.

This morning I had my first “I don’t feel like eating anything in the whole world” feeling.

This evening I felt the sleepy undertow.  I lied down around 6pm, and felt like I could just go to sleep.  I felt like it was going to be so hard just to get myself up.  I had a friend coming for a walk at 630, so I forced myself to get up.

So all my old friends are back.  Fevers, Loss of Appetite, and Exhaustion.  Side effects make constant companions.

I will fight them, though.  I will fight them with water, food, exercise and meditation.

I sound rediculous, right?  I’m just reminding myself.  I guess I don’t really care what I sound like b/c I know it will work.

Feeling better this morning

i hope i’m not speaking too soon, but this morning i just feel like i am a little bit hungover.  like three glasses of wine hungover.  i slept through the night.  i shot up around 1am.  its 11am now.  i slept 9 hours.  if i had chills and fever i was able to sleep through them.

It was relatively cold outside (74 or so) so S proposed not using the AC last night, and just having lots of fans.  So it was in the high 70’s.  Maybe that helped.

Tired, achy, and sick feeling, but this round was a whole order of magnitude better than the first round.
