OPTION OVERLOAD! I CAN'T THINK! I CAN'T BREATHE! Charlene: You look terrible, Cathy! You should start taking some vitamins!
After my first round of chemo “light” my specialist recommended a daily multivitamin and, since I work indoors, vitamin D. But then you need both calcium and magnesium to process the vitamin D so I am up to 4. Oh, also doctor recommended was omega 3 to help with my cholestoral (even though I also have to take a minimum dose of atorvastanin) so now up to 6 pills/capsules a day – and I hate having to take pills. This getting older can be a bit of a pain sometimes but the alternative is not something I am ready for yet.
I hope everyone is having a fun weekend.
