After 4th Cycle of TC Therapy / Days 2-7

Day 2
36.8°C. Perhaps due to the steroids, my sleep is light and I wake up in the middle of the night, but overall I don't feel too bad yet, so I'm spending the day as usual.
Since heavy rain is forecast for the afternoon, I went to the supermarket early to do some shopping. For dinner, we had tuna sashimi, deep-fried tofu pouches stuffed with natto and green onions, warmed tofu topped with meat miso, salad, and so on.

Day 3
36.6°C. The muscle pain in my legs has improved quite a bit.
My body is still moving normally and my stomach isn't bad, so I went to see the second part of the Golden Kamuy movie. The second part is getting into the core of the story, and more of the relationships and foreshadowing from before are being resolved. Seeing it with movement and voices in the anime made the parts that were a bit complicated in the manga very easy to understand, and I got emotionally invested—it was absolutely amazing. Yoshitada Otsuka is great.

Day 4
36.8°C. Still feeling normal.
My bowels are moving a little bit at a time, so I'm relieved for now.
The weather isn't bad and my husband is on a long weekend, so we bought some prepared food at the supermarket and had a picnic at the park. I didn't really like eating food outdoors before (like at BBQs), but since getting married, those opportunities have increased, and I've built up a tolerance? lol. Especially now, maybe it's because I have the feeling that if I can go out, I should. Eating Sukeroku sushi surrounded by greenery and everyone's peaceful holiday mood is nice. Mmm, it's peaceful.

Day 5
36.8°C. Oh? I don't feel as bad as I expected. My lower body was finally starting to heal, but it feels like it's acting up again.
The weather is nice again today. I ended up going to the park again. Because the dog run on a day off is the best (just watching, though). All the doggies looked so happy.
But man, riding a bike is tough again. When I got home and took off my pants, my thighs looked strangely thick—well, they were like that to begin with, but they're all puffy. It'll be a problem if I end up looking like Koichi Nakano (the legendary keirin cyclist with 60cm thighs) like this...

Day 6
36.8°C → 37.7°C. As if yesterday was a lie, I'm sleepy and sluggish.
I can't do anything~
Even if I'm awake, I'm just an ornament that exists there~
Even if I eat something, it tastes bad~
I can barely look at the TV or my smartphone, and information just feels noisy~
And since I get tired so easily, time just flies by as I lie in bed until night~
Surprise~
What is this~
It's my fourth time, but what is this~

After going through all those unpleasant feelings, dinner was the porridge my husband made, which has become a staple for days like this. He says it's not much trouble since he just boils rice he has stocked in the freezer. Still, I'm grateful. I added a little salted kelp and ate it. I feel a little better when I put something in my stomach. I'll take Loxonin and go to sleep.

Day 7
36.5°C → 37.1°C. I started to feel better for a moment in the morning, but then my fever went back up. It's not as bad as yesterday, but my body hurts. Muscle pain in my limbs. My brain has cleared up, so I can look at Twitter.
My husband said he'd be home late, and I felt bad that he'd have nothing to eat after a tiring day, plus I felt sorry for everything, so I managed to go shopping, thinking I could at least make a hot pot. A whole cabbage for 98 yen, alright! It's heavy! (strain on my arms). Plus bean sprouts, enoki mushrooms, tofu, and chicken meatballs for the pot...
The easiest thing would be to buy prepared food, but my sense of taste is... My brain is all for eating, but I feel a strong boycott from my stomach. And my tongue knows that even if I eat, I won't enjoy it. Stay, stay.
Yeah, hot pot was a good choice; it's gentle and I can get some vegetables. Now, I hope everything settles down in my body tomorrow.
