The Reiki session I had 2 days before the last treatment seemed to REALLY help with side effects. Reiki is an alternative and complementary therapy, which I had tried before. As it was explained to me, Reiki is a natural and simple way to achieve physical, emotional, mental and spiritual healing. It works to heal the root of disease, imbalance or disharmony.
The Reiki therapist channeled life-force energy from the universe through her body into mine. She worked on opening my chakra system (major energy centers: physical, mental and spiritual layers of the body), repairing damaged chakras and putting each in harmony and balance with my body (and the universe).
I was on the table with my eyes closed for over an hour, listening to soothing music while my thoughts floated from my disease in general to specifically minimizing the chemotherapy side effects. I could feel the warmth of the therapist's touch as she walked around me, connecting with my energies to bring the highest level of healing possible to me.
It's easy to be skeptical, but as the therapist said, "Reiki can't hurt, you have nothing to lose". So I went home with a daily mantra and intentions of "blessing" the infusion bag on the day of treatment. I've been saying the mantra and I did bless the bag(s). AND MY SIDE EFFECTS WERE MINIMIZED !! This is HUGE !!
I felt fatigue but not overwhelming bone and muscle pain. The pain I felt could be managed with percoset. My problem, however, was overdoing it the day I started to feel almost "normal". The fatigue came back and I've had to spend a lot of time in bed this weekend. By the time I'm finished with the chemotherapy treatment, I'll know how to do everything in perfect balance !!
I speak with the surgeon next week, as the next phase of treatment nears. We'll schedule appointments for tests to see exactly HOW FAR DOWN Igor has fallen in the last few months. I'm thinking hardly a pulse, beyond shell shocked to a whiny pustule of his former self. Then we'll schedule a surgery date, to rid my body of his disgusting residue FOREVER.
I now look forward to a few VERY GOOD days before the treatment on Thursday. Acupuncture, massage, a glass of wine with dinner. I've become, in short, a cheap date.
Thank you again for your well wishes, thoughts and prayers. I'm able to face the road ahead because of you, truly blessed every day.
