25 July - a bit of a worry

Saturday 25 July. It is the evening and I have played a friendly round of golf with the girls and taken the money so to speak. But I am now a bit concerned as I have a sniffle and a bit of a sore throat. When I get to bed I am a bit croaky.

Sunday 26 July. Definitely getting something. It feels like a head cold so I take some cold and flu stuff and head off the to match I am playing in against another club. I manage to get around feeling a bit rough but we win so that’s OK.

Monday 27 July. Wake up as snotty as hell. Real head cold stuff but the good news is I am not running a temperature so it isn’t swine flu. The big concern now is that I won’t be well enough for chemo on Wednesday. This would be a disaster as my entire schedule for the next few months is set around these chemo dates. Any delay would mess up holidays, golf, work …you name it. I call the office and work from home. That night I take am antihistamine to make sure I get a good night’s sleep as I have to be at a farewell lunch I am hosting at the RAC the next day.

Tuesday 28 July. The antihistamine did its job and I feel a great deal better. Still a bit snotty but it is under control and getting better. I go in a bit late to avoid the rush hour and manage to host the lunch OK.
