Tomorrow is my 5th chemo session, the penultimate one. Before the infusion, I am given a steroid through an IV, Dexamethasone, given to reduce the severity of fluid retention and allergic reactions.

(fingers crossed this will help.)

But the real reason for this post is that as I was looking up a little about this drug, I discovered something else about this common steroid:
