Okay I finally was able to see what message I posted to which you were replying. I've always done intermittent fasting for years usually not eating anything after 6:00 or 7:00 p.m. until noon the next day. I simply just wasn't hungry for breakfast. Overtime I figured it was a good way to manage my weight.

That being said, I tried to fast with the chemo but it just didn't work the best for me. I did it a couple times in the beginning but then after that I just didn't have the stamina to do it. I lost some weight with the chemo and I figured I better eat when I could.

However when I would get a chemo session I usually wouldn't have anything in the morning and not until later in the afternoon after my chemo was finished.

I ended my chemo on March 22nd after 7 infusions of Folfox. I was able to start the intermittent fasting again. I recently had my ileostomy reversal June 1st and debating when I should actually start my intermittent fasting again.

I did end up having an ablation to my liver metastasis between chemo infusion number 5 and 6.

My latest scans showed no evidence of disease and my sixth Signatera test was another negative.

My next scans will be in mid-August.

I do have some neuropathy in my feet from the oxaliplatin. It didn't seem to affect my hands.
