I just skipped a week, but she let me go back on today. Sure, I've been riding as much as possible in this beautiful weather, though I did abstain the weekend before my last Monday blood draw. And no, no flu shot--yet. I'm hoping they can do that for me when I'm down there. The chemo nurse told me to watch for fever, although I feel great--and have since I started taking the Xeloda.
