Hormones kicking in?

One of the first changes was that my sense of touch shifted.  Specially rubbing my hands together.  My sense of taste and smell also shifted slightly.  The first week I also had a distinct increase in men opening doors, and being the first in a out of a elevator.

Anybody have more sensation with their lips?  I was not much into kissing but love anything touching my lips now!

I definitely did.

They say women see more shades of red.  Red was never my favorite color but kinda grew fond of it.  I saw orange in my minds eye after chemo, but lately fluorescent orange is my favorite color;)  wife says I'd probably have no problems with jail clothes, but don't wanna see;)

Pretty much had my first dosage and a few hours later my mind cleared very quickly. No dysphoria, I felt 'right'.

Unfortunately though I did have a problem with water retention which was pretty uncomfortable. Also after the third day a lot of fast heartbeats, tingling and I naturally freaked out of course.

Things have calmed down since then except for random headaches I keep dealing with, but I learned I can calm them down by drinking more water.

Remember small asprin or some type of bloodthinner when you get those headaches.  You blood is getting thicker and can cause a stroke.  A small asprin is good anyway to help heart disease even if you didn't do this..

I would suggest reading carefully and consulting a doctor before taking any advice in regards to daily regiments of aspirin.
