Hi, I am new to the group.
I was diagnosed with bowel cancer on 12th December 2024. I had 12 cycles of folfox chemo and surgery in September 25.
I am really struggling with neuropathy in my hands and feet. I am also having flashbacks and vivid dreams which bother me.
I am due back at work on 19th January but am anxious that I wont be able to pick up the pace or that work will expect too much from me. I work from home (as per OH recommendations) due to becoming disabled during 2020/21.
Has anyone else struggled post treatment?
