    Weight gain during and after RCHOP
    I began my RCHOP treatment November 2009 for Non Hodgekins Lymphnoma Bcell. I was on Predisone, at the beginning I did not have noticable weight gain. By February 2010 the weight started to climb, I had 8 cycles of RChop th weight increased gradually, but continued to increase even after the completion of RCHOP. I have gained 3 stone in weight, I feel terrible with aching joints. I am active take my dog for walks every day for about 4 Km. I hate the bloated feeling of been over weight, nothing fits anymore. At present I am in partial remission. my work is active, carrying out surveys of countryside. If I dont lose this heavy load, I will not be safe working within my field. Does any one out there know best way to reduce this steroid induced weight (predisnone) I am lucky to be a NHL survivor, but dont want to be a blob.
