I had a distal pancreatectomy last July for a cyst, and pathology found a adenocarcinoma. So I am stage 1b pancreatic cancer. Had four chemo sessions to date, and fatigue has been the most consistent side effect. However, I feel less and less fatigued in the week before the next treatment. I am 66, and I exercised moderately before the disease, and I think that helped so far in tolerating the Folferinox to a degree. But, right after treatment, there's lots of side effects for days until I start to recover some more.

Be kind to yourself as you just underwent major surgery.

Healing takes a bit of time so do rest when you feel you need to whenever that may be.

Here's wishing you an uneventful speedy recovery.

Bobbie,
That is amazing that you are a triathlete. Use that strength and mental fitness you have from your training. Stay strong.
