I forgot to mention another cancer/chemo "positive" - my nails are long. Bizarre really- my nails are long and pretty strong- so much that I need to trim them for fear of cutting myself. Of course I am not "allowed" to go to a nail salon and get a manicure (can't risk cutting my cuticles and getting an infection). Yet on the other hand if I get a paper cut or minor scratch or even a pimple (surprisingly my complexion is clear- must be my calm zen like state of mind), it takes weeks to heal. What like I don't have any white blood cells left working anymore. Anyway it is all fascinating to notice how my body is impacted. Of course I would have been willing to read about it versus experience it first hand.
ok- biology class is over....
