3 month checkup

Just got home from my first 3 month checkup .My oncologist was very pleased with how I am doing.My weight was EXACTLY the same as when I started chemo,so the exercise is obviously good:) All in all,I feel pretty happy! Hope you are all doing OK today.Cheers Robyn.xox

  • Congratulations - past the 3 months hurdle - great news!  You have done everything right, and you look the picture of health in your photo.

    Tried your planking - 20 secs! - but improving in small amounts!

    Just home from my gastroscopy/colonoscopy procedures - also great news - no evidence of any abnormality.  Have graduated to 3 year checkups now. It is always a relief to get an All Clear - and no weight gain either.  Exercise works.

  • That's great news Robyn, exercise when possible during treatment is such a healthy mind and body treatment in itself. I had surgery again last week so now have just booked myself in to do the Bay of Fires walk in Tassie in October - it gives me something to look forward to. Happy excercising Fiona xx
  • Hi Robyn, it seems I am down today..... but don't know why kept thinking about you - your positive mind.....

    I felt heavy cold & flu, and extremely tired.  Sleep and dream and sleep and dream. 

    In fact I wish this is the worst that I felt, and don't know how may days to go through (I need another blood test this Wed, and back to hospital Thursday)

    Love to read your post, you made me feel things are easy, and will gone.

    Love uuuuuu

  • Not necessarily I don't think,but because of how tired it makes you,and therefore you are less likely to exercise and more likely to eat sometimes,( because of the steroids)I think it is very easy to put it on.Perhaps some medications also.Cheers Robynxox
  • so do you normally put weight on when you are on chemo, or loose weight? curious. thanks Marg
