So it's getting harder and harder. I'm never fully awake, half the time I have to sit on the bed to catch my breath just to get from the sofa to the bathroom! Every now and then I have some energy, so I go and spend it all just to crash afterwards. Joy. To top it off, the pain never seems to fully go away anymore. The debilitating bone pain that I have for 2 and a half days may finally leave, but my muscles still hurt after. The only time I'm not in pain is when I'm curled up in the bathtub with the shower running down my back. I take long showers every day now, hopefully the water bill won't be too bad. I mean, Tylenol does take care of most of the muscle pain, but I can't live off Tylenol every day. Blah, I have mouth sores this week too. But hey, the Lexapro must be working cause somehow I'm managing to deal with all this. Go Lexapro!
Oh, and though I'm never fully awake, I'm also never fully asleep. Damn roids.

I am a graduate student at GATech. I study physical oceanography and am particularly interested in biological systems. For those that don't know, it's basically physics, and no going "eww math!" at me.
In the beginning of March '07 during my second semester, I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma. It's actually not that bad... or at least it's not as traumatic as I'd have thought something like this would be before actually getting it. So I made a blog spot to kinda keep track of everything that's going on and post nice baldie photos of myself. =)
Edit: Ok, it's August now and I'll admit it has been somewhat traumatic. But I've been managing.
