I am curious to see if any of the survivors of lymphoma are or have had problems with energy loss, fatigue, numbness or breathing problems as a result of your chemotherapy treatments. I am a mother of 3, 37 years of age and finished my chemotherapy in the end of November, 2001. I am still having problems with fatigue and energy loss not to mention lack of sleep. Does anyone out there have any suggestions or have these same problems?

    Skueaky64,
    It took me almost a year to feel back to normal, I had a lot of problems with fatigue and ran out of energy fast. My chemo
    threw me into a pre-menopausal kind of thing,
    and that really affected my sleep.

    It took my husband a good year to feel back to normal as far as energy. He's 5 1/2 years in remission now and is "back to normal."
