As I read this and thought about a reply it came to me that for me 'normal' has changed. And again, for me, that is OK. I gave almost everything to my job pre BC and loved it. Now my focus has changed. However having said that I now feel guilty about not working at all and I know this is my problem as my family is very supportive. I am no where near completetion of Herceptin but I too feel tired all of the time (finished chemo May 25 2006). This is a diiferent kind of tired than the chemo tired. This one does not contain the chemo fog but just the fatigue feeling. My onc suggests that one should not have symptoms from Herceptin.....whatever I say huh ladies? OK anyway now I am rambling. I guess what I am trying to get at Jen is that normal for everyone is different and now for us our normal may be not what we are used to. Also, listen to your body, your heart and your soul and do what you think is best. And if you are having guilt, let it go.
Another thought just came to me. The breast cancer treatment decisions have been the easy ones, it's been life's decisions since BC that have been a real pain!
Good luck with your decisions and have faith that what you do decide will be best for you.
