pain in the neck

i'm going to the doctor to-morrow.

(what what?)

well, yesterday, there was a pain on the right side of my neck, where the port is.  then, it traveled up to the head, and grabbed at my brain like an iron fist.  i had to sleep propped up, with my head supported.

all day to-day, as i waited for the nurse to call, i had ice packs, and acetaminophen, and tea, and lots of whimpers.

hopefully i can get this taken care of before chemo on monday.

in other news, i tried on several wigs the other day.  i have a big head, and none of them fit.  i'm going to have to either go online, or go to a ritzy wig shop for help.  should be fun.  luckily, my insurance will help pay for a wig...as long as it's under $150.  (come to think of it, i may have to go online.... i can see that happening....)

this, too, will pass.  it just sucks that something like this is happening at the time when my body is supposed to be at its most healed.  i need sleep for the coming influx of drugs.

this too will pass (all things must pass)
