Hi Friends,

I was thinking about this last night, wonder if any of you have had a similiar experience.

I was dx'ed about one year ago, treatment in Aug/Sept and recovering since then. I am doing well, back to riding,swiming and running. Eating well thoughmy taste buds are wacky and still have some saliva problems. But for you newer folks, recovery takes time but it is steady and you will get better! I am even gaing some weight, just a few pounds. So here is the weird stuff

Before cancer I had colitus, an auto imune problem. I would get 3 flares a year. I also had exercise induced asthma, another immune problem. Both were inflaminatory problems. I would take prednizone like candy at times!

Well now, I do not have the asthma problem and have not had a colitis flare in a year. I wonder if the chemo and the radiation slapped the @#$% out of my immune system and got it back on track? weird ???

Hope you are all doing well today!

Steve
