Recovery Day 3

So this morning I woke up feeling pretty good. I planned on heading back to work today, which should be no big deal as I sit at a computer most of the day. I got a call from DKMS asking how I was feeling and thanking me again for what I've done. I did find out that my donation went to France and that the transplant went well. That also brought some bad news. France does not ever allow donors and patients to know who each other are. I will never find out who they are, and they will never know who I am. I can communicate anonymously and that's it. While this did make me very sad, it would not change what I've done, I would do this again and again no matter what. They said that it would be about a month before I can get my first update on how my recipient is doing, so that will be a very long wait for me.

I went in to work and thought I would be fine, but a few hours in I started feeling dizzy, nauseous and light headed. It was strange, because I have not felt like this at all through this whole process. I laid down for a while then drove home and slept. I still have a slight headache and feel exhausted again. So much for feeling 100% today! Maybe tomorrow or Saturday.
