    Hi Michele! I've been wondering how you're doing. It sounds like you've pushed yourself to get active (going up stairs etc) and showering. Good for you. It is a long, difficult recovery, I think, but you will come through the other end. I am coming up to 6 months post-op, and I'm feeling pretty fit, if slightly overweight due to eating habits during chemotherapy as well as ongoing medication. But I am keen to get back to where I was before this all happened. You will too!

      3 weeks post op today. Doing well slowly but surely. Nagging pain in lower right hand side. Hoping that goes away soon. Thank you for the reply.
