Wow it's been 2 weeks since my last blog. This has been probably the most inconsistent and confusing round yet. Every time I thought a symptom had finished our at least was easing based on other rounds it would come back. It's been stop/start, come, go, come back again. My hands are the worst and they really haven't yet gotten much better, although they haven't peeled, so not as bad as round 2.
Close behind is my mouth and appetite. By that I mean my mouth is dehydrated and my tongue is actually cracking down the middle. Everything still tastes like crap which always happens but it's usually gone by now. It's really hard to get excited about eating anything when it tastes awful and hurts to eat.
I doubt very much that I will be doing round 6 this week as my hands in particular just haven't recovered enough. As this is a side effect that is cumulative it needs to be reasonably recovered before we start the next round.
Tomorrow is the appointment with Niall so I let you know when I do.
The funny thing is other things such as my feet are recovering well, which is strange because every other time they followed the hands, but not this time. Like I said inconsistent and confusing. Anyway better feet means I got to walk on the cross trainer for the last 2 days. I really need to get some muscle tone back, the high nutrition /high protein diet means I maintain weight better but I think it's mostly fat. I'm currently just doing high protein and cutting back on the nutrition a bit.
