Calm down, you will get much much much much better !!! I guarentee it but you must be patient and give your body time to heal itself and recover from the brutal Tx we are put through. Your Tx was very similar to mine and I assume, like me, you had no surgery so we are very fortunate in that regards as our bodies don't have that double recovery thing going on. I'm by no means minimizing what we went through but man some the horror stories I have read I actually feel lucky.
E me private if you want but by this time next year you will be posting your own success stoies.
