Well I will be taking it when I get home from work after I eat I am sure some type of discussion will be started after that.  

 

Please brief me on the 'aborally' discussion.  B)

Aborally is not in my dictionary,is it only in the British Version? It looks like Webster missed a word.

MrsDeeJay. . .I will apologize for this group.  You have, unfortunately, ended up on a forum with some unsavory characters.  I try to hold myself above their depravity.  Sometimes I succeed.

I remember curling up under my desk for a nap in the early days.  The best antidote I found was to go and climb up and down a few flights of stairs and get the blood pumping.  It often took a real effort to make myself go and do it, but it made a huge difference.

If you're sleepy after just one day or 2, it's probably because you didn't sleep soundly.  A cancer diagnosis does that.  Now - after a week or 2?  Yeah.  TKI fatigue.  (Did somebody already welcome you to the club?)
