The few weeks post Tx are usually the worst and what compounds that is you aren't going to the doctor every day so you kind of feel abandoned and even scared like your security blanket has just been ripped away from you. I to was a 45 mile one way trip away from my cancer center so we had to call and then wait for the return calls. Not a fun time. I walked out of my dark tunnel in my 3rd week post Tx.
