One of the things I (we) tend to forget about heavy dex loading is the longer term stress it puts on the brain and body. Initial loading produces the roller coaster and the catfish/seagull effect. But the ultimate truth is it just beats the hell out of you over time.
40mg twice a week, Monday and Thursday is problematic for me. The ramping seems to happen off-cycle now and the lingering effects really don't go away. I dosed 40mg yesterday. I felt like crud yesterday and I still do today. I was extremely unpleasant last evening. I'm tired much of the time.
I'm worried about the masquerade dex puts on. I might be feeling bad because the dex is hiding some giant infection I got on the road. No, there are no external symptoms besides feeling lousy. The blood tests show I'm healthy. Can't find a masquerade.
Anyway, I get up, deal with the general misery, and move along. Tylenol is back to being my new best friend.
It's not BAD, it's just not good.

This blog is written by and about a guy with an incurable form of cancer. My purpose here isn't to say "woe is me", but to give insight about my thoughts, perspectives, and experiences throughout this adventure. My name is Andre. My partner's name is Ed. I intend to publish on a pretty regular basis here, but Ed might occasionally pop in with his thoughts too.

I fond Velcade a walk in the park compared to dex. After some months it would make me sleepy and it stopped working for me. I went on Remivid pill and have no side effects at all.
