I was diagnosed 7/21/03 and finished treatment 10/8. I just put on pounds the week of 03/10/04. I am excercising with weights and riding the bike as much as 7 miles every other day, eat like a pig several times a day and finally have my energy back the past couple of weeks. It does come back. My medical oncologist's nurse kept telling me when you turn the corner, you will know it for sure.
