OK,here is one that I haven't seen discussed.

I have noticed over the past couple of months that I have been more impatient and easily irritated. It kind of accompanies the chemo brain thing of forgetting names and such periodically. Just enough to be annoying. It has been difficult at work,and I suppose I have not been getting as much sleep as I could, but just wondering if anyone else had experienced the same thing.

Physically, I seem to have reached a point of some stability. I have a little more saliva,but still can be challenged, especially after exercise. Taste is pretty good, just a little "off" taste to chocolate. Biggest issues is neck and shoulder stiffness and discomfort. However, emotionallly I am not doing so hot. Nothing dramatic, just enough to be noticeable and troubling.

As always, any input is appreciated. Thanks!
