Saw Dr. Kim, my radiation oncologist, this week. It was a quick appointment....
How do you feel? Extremely fatigued.
I don't think the fatigue is a result of the radiation anymore. Really?
Are you having any hot flashes? Yes.
I think you might be peri-menopausal. The chemo does a number on your ovaries, and menopause causes fatigue. Oh no!
See what happens when Dr. VanderMolen draws your blood next week. OK.
So, we'll see what happens when I see my oncologist. I'm only 44 and way too young for menopause!!! Yikes.

Chemo-induced menopause? It is just the gift that keeps on giving, isn't it? If it is, try some herbal therapy. It does help with the hot flashes. I hope that you keep getting stronger. Jennifer said she saw you and Clayton and Parker at the Zoo.
Later,
Lynn
