Hi, I’m a year yesterday from completing treatment for T2N1M0. All is well, PET scans and ultrasounds are good to date. However, through the previous year before diagnosis of constant hard coughing, then the diagnosis and treatment and side effects thereof including fierce vomiting, sluggish bowl and persistent constipation through pain relief medication, I’ve lost an awful lot of muscle tone, but of most concern internally. Have any of you experienced vaginal prolapse due to all the above? My muscle build up is still very slow despite my high protein diet, and still mega fast metabolism it seems, I still struggle with some foods as you’ll know, takes a while. Should I visit my GP about it or let it lie as I don’t think it’s fixable from what I’ve read so far. Theres so much to deal with post treatment that haunts me still, stuff you just can’t bring yourself to talk about. I hate it.
I haven’t but please don’t leave it. My mum suffered because of chronic constipation as a result of long term opiate use for pain.
There’s lots you can do. Pelvic floor exercises are a must. NEVER get constipated. Mum had a vaginal ring to hold things in place latterly but initially exercises and oestrogen helped enormously
Don’t give up.
