After weeks of research and consultation, planning, choosing, and preparing for chemo, yesterday, at the very edge of the pod room, I had to turn around and come home.
The irritation I had developed over the weekend turned out to be shingles (herpes zoster), a viral condition. No chemo for me until it clears up.
I am taking Valtrex, which is supposed to shorten the duration.
Has anyone else run into this?
