F/N

F/N = Fever and neutropenic. Apparently it is a pretty common reaction to the chemotherapy… I just did not want it to be my reaction! Good news though. No fever this morning. Let’s hope those white blood cells and neutrophils are chugging along too.

Someone once told me, “if you want to get some rest, don’t come to the hospital.” True words. I certainly remember the drill: vitals every four hours, blood draws as six in the morning. And every time a nurse comes in, “When was your last bowel movement?”
