Going into it the one silver lining was that it'd be a good weight loss opportunity

I'm going to assume that your cancer took an ass whooping and decided to change it's ways by just growing muscles instead of tumors. You made it your bitch.

Yeah it's just like my regular meals and portion sizes don't do me feel full anymore. Always feeling it now.

Hope that's the case ha ha

Will save me the effort of having to get back in shape when all this is over.

I did the same. Gained around 20 pounds after 3 cycles.

Was just pumped with so much fluid and had to pound a ton of water to keep kidneys in shape.

I didnt get much flu like symptoms tho, only on bleo days...

Yeah they got me on the whole "take allopurinol and drink several litres of water to flush it all out" thing

I get pretty tired and lethargic for about 3-4 days then I'm back at fighting strength. Used to have nausea but the meds keep me all good now.

If ya don't mind me asking @BuckVanHammer (you may have told me before and apologies if I've forgotten) but what was your cancer and treatment? I'm on ABVD rn and likely about to switch to BEACOPP

I had testicular that metastasized to lymph nodes, so i had a very large mass in my abdomen. I thought i pulled my back when i found out. It was actually the mass smashing my kidney.

Had 3 cycles of bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin. Then had to have surgery to remove the mass.
