Hi Anita,
wonderful news that you have finished chemo, you have done so well. A good time to work on rebuilding strength but be careful about jumping into weight loss before you finish radiation.

If I do they need to redo CT planning & tattoos. So far I've lost 3kg and halfway thru rads, hoping I get away without having to re CT. Talk to your Rad Onc & see what they advise. All the best, Tracey ??
