i was diagnosed with stage 3b Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma in 2015 and had six rounds of CHOP plus a total of 11 operations (they thought the issue was my breast when in fact it was lymphoma based in the breast therefore did many exploratory operations.
Two years post chemo I’m nearly three stone heavier, eat bad food and have no real appetite. I have lost my sense of taste and can be very picky what I eat. What I love one day makes me feel sick the other. I just eat to feeed myself snacking on sandwiches and jacket potatoes. I used to love salads and fruit and now I can hardly touch them. I even struggle eating my veggies on a Sunday dinner. I used to be so fit before chemo going out on my bike, exercise classes and was generally active. I now suffer from chronic fatigue, peripheral neuropathy, Lymphoedema and have recently been diagnosed with haitus hernia. I do exercise (walk my dog) when my health permits but I can have periods up to three weeks where I can barely move from the fatigue. Any progress I have made losing weight then piles back on when I am inactive. I wondered if anyone else has a similar problem?
