Welcome to OCF. You came to the right place for support. As many of the posters have said we all go through treatment differently. Me, I had the worst of the worst. If it could wrong it did. I was not able to work form the start of treatment and was off for about two months after that. I only went back work then because my FMLA ran out. I am a teacher and it is very taxing, and I had a rough time of it going back. But now I am back at it full steam ahead and doing great. You will get through this. I pray that you go through it with ease and not many problems.
