Just to add:

I lost a female friend on the 31st of August due to breast cancer. She was pregnant last year and due to that the radiation was delayed/minimum dosages. She gave birth earlier this year and it would have been her Birthday yesterday.

Cancer is a !%$#

Effing hell, that sucks! Have you recovered and returned to your normal weight since? or are you still in process of getting your appetite back and so on?

As soon as you stop you lose the weight immediately so not really.

You also have plenty of annoying side effects from the cortisone.

Are you nuts? I needed to lose that weight
Haven't gained it back....it's been 5 years now, so, yes, everything is back to normal.

I still have 3/4kg to gain to not look like I come from Darfur.

I was already skinny at 70kg, but at 66 it’s just not possible, you see my ribs.

The appetite comes back slowly though so it’s in a good way.

I weight 67kg now, I have always weight 67kg, and I am balding. So I look horribly sick...I can empathize with you
 
@EMAM well done!
my mother died of cancer 1998 aged 64yrs - it spread so bad they couldn't tell where it started. no chance of chemo. she wouldn't want to either.

gave her 2 bottles of morphine for the pain & 6 weeks to live. she managed 6 weeks & 12hrs.

Similar situation with my Grandmother, she was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer in her very 80's - must have been a few moths short of her 90th birthday.

She flat out refused treatment and died 2 months after her 90th birthday.
