Need Advice
I have been layed up now for two months or so. I have no energy very weak can barely get dressed with out running out of breath. The doctor says my bloodwork is good but my electrolites have been up and down. So I am drinking gatorade and taking vitamins know. What else can I do to get me strenght back these treatments have been so hard on me it is taking me forever to bounce back if I do at all. Rick and I went food shopping this morning and I barely made it through it. Will it get better as soon as the cancer shrinks enough. I know I have to be more active but it is so hared I am completly wiped out. That's why I find it so hard to believe that my CBC is good all the time. Any advice I will deeply appreciate. I just want to feel better. I have no results yet on how the treatment is working. I feel like it is working, I should be having scans soon April 29th will be my thrid Carboplatin. Thanks in advance.
Love you all
Karen
