Fatigue

helpjoy

Hi, I had my colon cancer surgery in October, 2002. I received the chemo and radiation treatments. Had surgery to remove the stoma bag. (I was very lucky) Had physical therapy to build up my strength, instead one of the exercises created severe swelling in my toes, ankles and legs, developed high blood pressure. Anyway, I move around, do some house cleaning etc: Medicare provided me with a scooter, I love this. But, I am so slow, I do not get the tired feeling after a long day from working like I used to, I feel weak, no strength. Is anyone else feeling this way? how do you handle your systems or is it from trying not to be depressed or sad? Medications?

Thanks, joy

Please answer, I do love to talk.
