Has anyone found it taking longer to get over FLOT as time goes on?
My husband had his fourth and last pre-op treatment last week. The first one was pretty tough. The dose was reduced to 80% after that and the second one was not so bad although abdominal cramps and digestive troubles continued, plus the inevitable fatigue. The third one was relatively easy so he was optimistic about the last one, but it seems to have knocked him for six this time. He's also lost weight. Is this normal?
After a week - when he would normally be perking up - the cramps are back, he's tired all the time and has lost his appetite today, having been eating quite well the last few days. He has a 'CPET' fitness test coming up in a few weeks and wants to work on his fitness but he's worried because a short (15 minute) walk at a gentle pace is about all he can manage at the moment.
Any reassurance or advice would be gratefully received!
