Round Two- never a dull moment

Abby's blood levels increased which means she could begin round two of chemo. She was admitted to the hospital today and began chemotherapy around 5pm. She receives 2 chemo medications over a 3 hours span. The first one is given for and hour and the second one is given for two hours. Approx. 10 minutes into the second medication Abby had a severe allergic reaction to the medication. She complained of dizziness, headache and was holding her throat because it was swelling. Her skin started getting blotchy. Nurses rushed in and gave her a shot with the Epi Pen and followed it with Benadryl. Chemo has stopped for today and will resume tomorrow with a different type of medication. Abby slept a lot this evening and seems to be doing OK.
