Finally starting to see some weight gain. I lost a total of 25 pounds while I was in treatment (eight weeks of chemotherapy and radiation therapy). I completed the final round of chemo and completed 28 sessions of intensity modulated radiation therapy the first week in May. Side effects didn't go away until almost seven weeks after the last radiation session (which is normal).
The outcome of the treatment has been positive. The MRI and both oncologists said that there is no evidence of disease (this is very good news!).
So far, after today, I have gained 20 pounds back. I am also getting my energy back.
