Back at work

Hi, I finished treatment for a grade 3 Breast cancer end of July. Had lumpectomy, chemo and radiotherapy. Went back to work in October, I still feel tired a lot of the time, exhausted by the end of my shift, I’ve actually felt as if I could fall asleep while driving home often. Am I being pathetic, should I be coping better by now? I feel only others who have been there can answer that, I’m not looking for sympathy, but appreciate any opinions x

  • I was diagnosed late with prostate cancer and put on chemo after a short period..had a bad first session but decided to keep things as normal as possible and went back to work (builder) the physical element quickens the metabolism and helps distribute the drugs quicker...far from losing hair I had it all off at the barbers as I didnt want my grandson to see it all falling out...and its growing back nicely even on my 'bald patch' , energy levels vary from day to day but overall I am coping with the demands I am puting on my body....I keep ultra possitive as I beleive you need that mindset...Keep Strong mate!!!
