i am 8 weeks out of treatment i did not have any surgery just chemo and rad and i am tired all the time i am forcing myself to do things which is making me ill and my wife shout at me, i can now eat without the peg and started to put a little weight back on which made me feel better so i went clay shooting the following day i could barley walk and ended up doing nothing for three days by which time i felt better so i thought i would go to a dog trial with my wife i barely made it home afterwards and was bad for two days , i have been told that this is all normal and to eat and gently exercise it takes months two fully recover , so don't worry i think that most of us are the same and its only the very lucky ones that dont feel it , I'm a mechanic and god only knows when i will be fit enough for work , hang in there , cheers Allan
