I can't answer your question, but I wanted to say I'm feeling the same as you. I finished treatment 3 mos. ago and still haven't gone back to work. I also lost alot of weight, and muscle. My job is a physical one, so I can't go back until I can perform the tasks. They also don't have part time, so I have to make sure I can make it 8hrs,(working shift work). The drs. tell me everyone's recovery is different. I do know I'm getting stronger everyday and have improved greatly in the last month. I'm hoping I'll know when I can do things around here without getting tired and having to rest, then I'll be ready for work. I'm anxious to go back to work, sometimes I think I just want life to seem "normal" again. Sorry if I didn't help, but I wish you the best in your recovery.
