Question Question for Becky

Hi Becky
I have a question about getting our energy
levels back after treatment. Maybe I just
want to rant a bit.

While on chemo I could not have gone to
work to save my life. I was sick most of
the time. I finished the shock and awe
chemo in March 06 and finished herceptin
in January 07. I am still struggling big time
with fatigue. I am taking arimidex and celexa.

Do you think there could be something else
causing this? I have gained a ton of weight
(I am hungry all the time) and am trying very
hard to get "moving".

I used to walk miles every day and now I am
lucky to make it once around the block. My
feet and legs feel like cement posts. AND YOU
ARE TRAINING FOR MARATHONS!!! Is there any
hope for me? I sure didn't think it would take
this long to get back some semblance of my
former self. I also don't eat chocolate every
day - I want to but I don't.
