Thanks Matt. I am slowly recovering. I had 19 lymph nodes removed an 3 show malignancy so my consultant suggested adjuvant chemotherapy.
I am trying to put on some weight before the Chemotherapy.

@joeseah - I too did lose a good bit of weight after surgery - about 30 pounds or so. Once I had the Creon dosage worked out, I was able to maintain and then gain a bit back. I do eat three meals and three snacks a day (about 3,000 to 4,000 calories) and am fairly active and have been at a stable weight for well over 2 years now.
I can't speak to the chemo part of your treatment - the one thing that I have found in my journey is to ask for second opinions on treatment plans to confirm the best plan for you. Just something for you to consider. Take good care of yourself!
