Depression could be a big factor.
I'm guessing (don' know for sure) that her blood counts should all be normal by now. I will suggest to my girlfriend that her step-daughter take B12 and magnesium and possibly think about a thyroid test. Depression could be a be factor cause my girlfriend said this girl is "depressed about the weight gain while on steroids", plus being diagnosed just after the birth of her child which means she also didn't get the chance to loss her pregnancy weight also.
Thank you Juanita, Karen, Esther, Laurie & Kate. You girls are great!
Sure Karen, I would like some more info from your magazine if you have the time. Who knows , I also suffer from fatigue being on Tykerb/Xeloda. Most days I need a hour power-nap to re-energize.
Thank you again everyone!
