I've seen some of the reports about exercise immediately after infusion. It sounds really interesting. I was 43 when I had AC and 53 when I had TC. I did my best to keep active throughout both but that wasn't so achievable through my last treatment. AC wasn't too bad, but I was very fit before I started which would have helped. I was able to keep up my daily walks of 6 km without too many problems but the wheels fell off about a month after I finished TC. Being part of a structured program would probably have made a huge difference from a motivational perspective and I certainly would have had a go straight after treatment as I had no allergic reactions and apart from being a bit vague, rather like being mildly pished, I wasnt unwell on the day.
