The situation is that I self administer a shot on Friday night. This causes me to ruin my whole weekend for my family and I. The 3 pills twice a day interact with the shot…as the week proceeds the effect on me is less traumatic. Mondays and Tuesdays…I don't believe I should be in the office. Driving into the office is dangerous (I almost wrecked twice today) and I'm exhausted by the time I get here, getting home is not something I want to face either…right now I feel sort of trapped. By Wednesday…to Friday I'm more like myself and am prepared to deal with the work.
There are two components I see at work during the "hard times" with the drugs. First…emotionally interacting with people is extremely difficult. Second…finishing a thought is tough…completing a simple task seems to make me want to puke…or feel nauseous.
The wife is suggesting that I move the shot from Friday night to Sunday night, making Monday ~ Wednesdays…the worst days. Giving me the time I need to pull myself back together for work and leaving me the best time to spend with my family on the weekends.
So…there you have it. I'm probably going to take off all my Mondays and Tuesdays…until I finish the treatment. I'm told that soon as the treatment ends, there are no adverse side effects.
Today has been very tough for me to get into the office. I am moving equipment home with me today to setup for telecommuting.
