Just finished 25 radiotherapy and 5 chemotherapy just waiting now to see oncologist on 5 June after all treatments felt really good just three days feeling tired but now can eat anything after not being able to eat very little for nearly a year lost 5 stone in that time hoping I can put on some
Sounds like you’ve been on a long and probably tough journey. You have made brilliant progress, but at the expense of body weight.
Cream cakes and sausage rolls now though. However I do realise that a high fat diet is not necessarily the answer.
I hope the appointment on 5th June is a good one and you come out with a smile on your face.(And maybe stop off for a MacDonalds on the way home?)
Thinking positive thoughts.
Counting the days, making every day count.
