A month without doctors
Aside from a couple of physical therapy appointments, I made it through my first month without any doctor's visits. Feels pretty darn good! But, I am far from being 100% healthy. I am still pretty tired most of the time. It could be that I might be pushing myself a bit though too. Besides going back to work, I have been increasing my physical activity. I have been playing pick up basketball games twice a week (with a few nurses so I feel protected in case anything goes wrong) and softball once a week. A couple of other days I try to get in a short jog on the beach. My breathing is much better, I don't get as winded as I did back in July (I can run the bases now). This is a big improvement. I still have to compression wrap my arm every night before I go to bed. This seems like it will be my "normal" as long as I keep on being active. All, in all, I feel pretty good about how far I have come considering this time last year I was going through my last round of chemotherapy.
