Get well soon!
I've had two people close to me that had stage 4 cancer, and they both recovered. My mom had breast cancer and she recovered as well.

Fatigue and Psychological Well Being
The journal "Cancer" published a May 1999 study by F. Dimeo and associates that reported the result of physical activity intervention in chemotherapy patients. Twenty-seven subjects engaged in 30 minutes of stationary biking each day while hospitalized. The researchers noted a significant decrease in fatigue complaints among the test subjects compared to the control group. The test group also indicated fewer fears, less anxiety and a decrease in other types of psychological distress.Read more: http://www.livestrong.com/articl…

Godspeed identity!
I had various brain surgeries to alleviate epilepsy years ago; not to compare but instead saying you are not alone...
...Take care of yourself always; health is wealth and you are worth anytime it takes to make yourself better. Find what that will take and focus 100% of your energy to it.

I hope QBN can provide you with positive thoughts, experiences & advice.
This place can be pretty great (at times).
All I know (honestly) is during chemotherapy (and when I lost my appetite during my surgery) I smoked a joint and the healing began...

Hey guys!
Currently recovering from chemo and a number of other things. I realized, recently, that by taking a plastic, folding chair (like you'd have on a balcony) - you can put that in a flat-basin shower and it instantly Becomes a really luxurious experience. (And prevents me from passing out from the heat + standing up)
Anyone been through this here that have made similar life/home hacks for convenience?
