Sharon just informed me that recovery from melphalan takes 40 - 50 days. This could explain how I feel and what it going on. It is far and away the nastiest chemo drug I have been exposed to. I am now 16 days out from my stem cell transplant, 17 days from melphalan and am still experiencing nausea, loose stools, and fatigue. I also have almost no appetite, no taste, still losing hair, and generally feeling yucky.Tomorrow evening we will head home. Perhaps that will help!
