This is my first post...I started folfox in November. Have 2 more treatments left so I should be excited. It is definitely getting harder. It never has been easy but I have always had a great attitude and have expected the routine to get through it. I am the type of person that everything will be ok..But I am soooooooo tired. I was walking up until a month ago. Cant seem to get my but to the gym. I just want to sleep. I had treatment last Monday. I had a reaction on treatment 4 so I get alot of premeds. Everyone know this is my tired day and we laugh at the fatigue..I am good with the pump tuesday and wednesday. I disconnect wednesday and by thursday evening my body does not want to move with my brain...this continues friday, saturday, sunday, and monday..Tuesday a fog begins to lift but I am still tired...I have given in to the napping. But dont know if I should fight through it. And I am worried about the last 2 treatments kicking my but more. My husband understands and know it will be tough. I cant ask my kids for more help.. They are in every sport they have been amazing...but I want them to be kids and I want them not to be effected by this..as I know they have. We are all pretty much tired of the this thing... I look good on the outside..thats what everyone says...but I feel miserable on the inside.. Any strategies anyone has would be helpful... Thank you for alllowing be one of the lurkers over the past several months...You are all brave and I have laughed smiled and felt comforted by all of you...Have a great day!
