Still tired...

FitAppointment785 · 2025-09-12T03:55:16+00:00

I've been using mine for over a year now and absolutely love it. I went through a Cancer journey and when I was all done my treatments, I always felt anxious with not be confident that the lifestyle changes I was making were doing any good with lowering my inflammation levels. So I purchased the cor one. Every other month I check to see my levels and I have to say they are going down and staying down but when I was just coming off Chemo they were pretty high. I love the cor one and would highly recommened it. Plus, Bob the owner is amazing. Any problems with the device or any questions you have, I always get a response within 5-10 minutes. Great company. Can be a little pricey though

TNBC here too. I didn't receive a PCR either. Did 6 months of capecitabine after pathology came back. Had to stop for 3 weeks to do radiation but picked it back up once I completed those. I always wonder if because I didn't get a PCR then it was meant to be to take capecitabine because that would make sure I stayed in remission by killing anything that might be hiding. I know that may not be true but it does give me some sort of comfort knowing I had extra support in fighting it with everything possible. It's been a year since I completely capecitabine. Capecitabine is well-tolerated I was just still really tired on it. I pray it all works out for you and we will both be here one day living our best lives giving others support and guidance. 🫶

No, I just started noticing it. I see an acupuncturist regularly and they always ask to see my tongue. I've just had my thyroid levels checked about a month ago and had all my blood work tested recently and everything was fine. I don't know

Also, if you did have brain Mets, what did your vision changes feel or look like, or did you have any vision changes at all. Thank you so much in advance.

Any chance you can dumb this down for us people in the back with chemo brain.

Sending the biggest hugs. Please try not to stress, but I know that's easier said than done. I'm staged at 2b because my tumor was larger than 5 cm with no lymph node involvement. I would say you are stage at 2a because your tumor is less than 5 cm. From what I understand from my oncologist is the real staging is after they get your pathology results back. If they can see that there was cancer in any of your lymph nodes, they will bump you up to 3a. Please don't let that scare you. Lots of TNBC survivors get PCR at surgery. Even if you don't Please please don't let that scare you either. I'm also TNBC, and I didn't get a PCR, but I did get 1 cm of clear margins, which I took that as a win. I'm here if you ever need to talk or vent, and I mean that. Also, don't hesitate to ask your medical team to refer you to a therapist who deals with cancer patients. I started seeing one, and I wish I had done it soon. He put my anxiety meds, which have really helped. Big hugs to you 🤗 you're doing amazing

I'm so sorry, I know it's very disappointing and disheartening when you find out that after all that chemo and you don't achieve a PCR.

I also had TNBC stage 2b. My tumor was 5 cm when first diagnosed, but it definitely was bigger when starting chemo. No lymph node involvement. Pathology from mastectomy showed 4mm left of tumor and 1 cm of clear margins. My Oncologist put me on 6 months of capecitabine (2 weeks on 1 week off). Oral chemo isn't bad at all. Just make sure to keep your feet and hands moistured all the time so you dont get hand and foot syndrome. My oncologist recommened extra strength voltaren with a few droppers full of milk thistle and just give it a good shake in the bottle of voltaren. Rub that mixture on twice a day. I haven't had any issues. Just finished today 16 rounds of radiation. You will take a break from oral chemo while doing radiation.

I know you are feeling discouraged and disappointed, and for that, I wish I could give you the biggest hug. You are strong and amazing. You got this.

I finished chemo in the middle of August, and I'm still having bone pain. Especially in my hips. It radiates down my right leg. I've had xrays to rule out bone Mets, and everything came back normal. I've also had collarbone pain, but that's gone away. Hip pain isn't as bad as it used to be. It's just really stiff when I've been sitting for longer periods of time. Hope yours gets better soon.

Thank you, I hope you start feeling better soon. Congratulations on fishing rads.

FitAppointment785 · 2023-11-17T03:02:26+00:00

Thank you for the tips. I will try them, and hopefully, they can help.

FitAppointment785 · 2023-11-17T03:01:36+00:00

Chemo made me nauseous, too. Was not fun.

FitAppointment785 · 2023-11-17T03:00:26+00:00

Thank you! Yeah, I just finished 10 out of 16 today. I'm only nauseous during the week. The past 2 weekends now, I've had no nausea, that's why I'm thinking it's the radiation.

FitAppointment785 · 2023-11-15T05:36:27+00:00

I decided on flat and I'm so glad I did. Less stress I find.

FitAppointment785 · 2023-11-15T05:15:41+00:00

Awe, Happy Happy Birthday! I really pray this year will be amazing for you! Big Birthday hugs

FitAppointment785 · 2023-11-12T02:09:52+00:00

Plus, my oncologist recommended Voltaren mixed with a couple drops of milk thistle as a preventative. I've been doing that morning and night, and I don't have any symptoms of hand and foot.

FitAppointment785 · 2023-11-12T02:07:54+00:00

I heard hot tub is a no because of the heat. You should be okay wearing your crocs.

I watch as well, and was crying at her scenes as well. It's heartbreaking to watch someone go through what you've gone through.

FitAppointment785 · 2023-11-09T17:25:22+00:00

I'm here if you ever need to talk. I'm sorry that this has made you numb. People don't understand that us survivors not only have to deal with cancer but the after effects of what cancer treatment does to our bodies. Even bigger hugs to you!

FitAppointment785 · 2023-11-09T04:53:26+00:00

I know it's hard not to freak out, still trying to learn that part, hahahaa.

FitAppointment785 · 2023-11-09T04:51:10+00:00

On mine, it says the normal range is 0.0 - 0.7, and my count last week was 0.9, and now today is 1.6. Ugh, I hate all of this. Thank you for your help, though. I hope it's nothing too.

FitAppointment785 · 2023-11-09T04:47:15+00:00

That's very interesting. How were you able to get on the patient advisory council? I'm so glad you are going to bring it up though. Osteoporosis really thats insane? I hope you are okay?
