How long do you want to ignore this user?
Day 3 of round 2 today. Starting to feel rough, but hanging in there! Gig 'em!
You've got this and you're rocking a strong Telly look!
Round 3, Day 2 today. Been pretty rough yesterday. I think it's all starting to compound. Still going strong though! Over halfway done. Bloodwork is looking good. I think I'm whooping this things ass!
Looking good man! Been there unfortunately and done that but got through all of it just as you are. You're obviously keeping the spirit up which is huge. I think our timing is similar in that I was in treatment during Aggie football season--a wonderful and welcome distraction.
Gig 'em!
Gig 'em!
Finished my final treatment on Friday and got to ring the bell! Finally feeling well enough to post about it. Last round was incredibly rough. I guess all of them compounding on each other. Regardless, I'm ecstatic to be done. Appreciate all the prayers and well wishes from y'all on here.
Advice wise, what can I expect in the next 4-8 weeks? I've lost almost all my muscle mass and dropped 20lbs. Hair is nonexistent across my whole body. When can I expect some semblance of normal? I have no energy or stamina, but have a wind of rejuvenation in spirit knowing this is behind me. I'm ready to get back after it.

You are going to have up and down days. Chemo brain (fog) is real. Chemo really changes or alters the body in some way. Beware of infections and cuts. Everyone has different experience post chemotherapy. If you are able to eat withou advers affects you should be able to gain your weight and muscle back fairly easy. For me, if my hair groes back or not it doesn't matter. My head shaved looks pretty good. No energy or stamina suck but you will get through it. It does feel good to get back to doing what you enjoy.FightnFarmerUSMC said:
