Re: now they are moving in on how/why of weight gain during chemotherapy 4 breast can
ngel- I am 37 and just finished chemo. I am er/pr+ and HER2+. During Chemo I gained about 15lbs. But have since lost 8 lbs since June 1st. I was underweight before chemo and kinda liked the added lbs. What worries me is that for a year prior to my dx I was constantly losing weight and the docs could not figure it out so in my mind I think that weight loss=cancer. Which I don't really know if that is true. Is it?..... The more information I read the more scared I get about this stuff coming back.
