Michael finished his radiation on 12/5/06 and had a great CT scan on 1/23/07. He was being fairly active a couple weeks ago - using the computer (which is upstairs), doing his eBay thing, driving to the post office and even a small amount of grocery shopping (he used to be our main grocery shopper), but for the last week he says he says he feels worse again - very tired, neck and back ache, now his upper arms ache. He still has sleep problems which have been on-going and decreased appetite again - he has lost a couple pounds. His weight had been stable for several weeks. The last couple days he did not even get the newspaper. I seem to have a cold so I suppose it could just be that, or I think he sort of thought that with the great CT scan he would immediately feel
