Alice,

I have a very similar history, finished Herceptin in June. I also am frustrated at the rate of recovery. My counts are still low and my Onc said it will just take time. Everybody is different. Exercise or activity appears to be key, but like you I work and my workout times are very short. So, I guess the answer is just to remember our bodies are still healing and we are soooo much better than 6 months ago. Maybe six months from now we'll be running the marathon...or at least a 5K.
