@catts, yikes, fracturing anything while in treatment sounds like adding insult to injury. I hope your cheekbone healed already. I'm glad that the subsequent treatments were less dramatic.

You're so right that exercise or movement can help. Hard to do when you're feeling fatigue or suffering other side effects. As they say, doing just a little helps a lot. What exercise helped you? Are you finished chemo treatments?

@colleenyoung I finished chemo treatments just over two months ago. At the beginning of chemo I would walk each day. When the neuropathy got worse, I started using a recumbent bike and was able to raise my heart rate 😊
