Pace's Allergic Reaction to the Chemotherapy Drip

The chemotherapy session did not go so well today. Pace had a reaction to the Abraxane mid way through treatment.

They stopped the drip, shot her full of Decadron to stop the reaction and bring down any inflamation, then fed her a perscription level Benedril that made her feel instantly drunk and unable to maintain her equalibrium. "Quite the buzz" Pace remarked as she started to come back to normal.

Once everything was back under control, they carried on the treatment. Home we went and straight to bed for Pace. She slept for a good 6 hours straight.
