Hello so I went through Flot treatment. Started October of 24 4 chemotherapy treatments every other week for two months. For me a little nausea and a little fatigue nothing I couldn’t handle. Walking helped me tremendously. Then waited 5 weeks had my surgery January 3rd in the hospital 8 days 9 hour surgery. It is major surgery. Waited 4 weeks then had 4 more chemotherapy treatments same way. Finished April 5th 2025. Nausea and fatigue harder this time took a few weeks to recover. But I’m feeling almost normal now biggest thing now is just eating smaller meals most food tastes good but not all. Continue to get stronger everyday. What ever you decide make sure your oncology doctor and surgeon work together well if you decide to go this way. Good luck to you and your family. Scott

This is basically the timeline/process I am looking at. Did you work through most of this? I build houses and I have no idea if I'm out of business for 5 or more months or if I should try and get a less demanding job.
