LadyJ,

Just like everything else associated with medical Txs, everyone can react differently to the same meds or surgery or chemo or rad, etc. There are soooo many variables to come into play that can and will affect how each of us reacts. I was totally heathly and physically fit before my Dx. I also did not have to have any pre Tx surgery, so if anyone should have had it easier during this Tx it should have been me. I came out of that nasty tunnel in my 3rd week post and many of us on this site did so around that time as well, BUT if your H doesn't don't take that as a sign that something is wrong with him. In fact very few people have ever said they started to feel better BEFORE the 3rd week. So the 3rd week is usually the earliest time to see positive signs.

Good luck and lets hope the beast loosens it's grip soon. I just remember one day I was still feeling like S..T and the next morning I woke up and said WOW I feel a little better. It wasn't dramatic but I it was better and I just knew that it was the beginning of the recovery. As Gary says, it's slow but over time he will get progressively better.
