So glad you have finished all of your treatments. Recovery can be a long road that doesnt always follow the timelines we create for ourselves. Your body has been thru ALOT!!! It does take a while for OC patients to get back on their feet after so much. Best thing you can do is rest when you are tired (probably a considerable part of your day right now), continue pushing your daily intake to 2500+ calories and 48-64 oz of water every single day, pain meds when necessary and soon enough you will begin to feel more like your old self. Hoping you have a speedy recovery and are able to return to most of your regular routines soon.
Best wishes with everything!!!
