Just a quick update of how things are after 24 hours.
I have no nausea so that's great.
The powerful steroid Dexamethasone which is part of the regime has knocked my daily fevers for six and my temperature has sat firmly in the 35deg range now for a day. This is great as it means no having to wake in the middle of the night to take paracetamol to avoid those terrible shivering fevers.
I only take this steroid for four days, so we shall see what happens from there.
So, so far so good, but way too early to see changes in the any Hodgkins B-symptoms.
Loosing the all over body itch would be the strongest signal that the drug is working.
We shall see how things go in a few more days.
