Absolutely true for me! And when the fatigue hits, it is especially difficult. MM impacts so much.

Yes, everyday! And if I’m feeling fatigued and I lay around too much then the next day is even worse.

Amen! I just finally retired (three years post SCT) but every day was a challenge to get up and get going. I consider myself pretty tough but I’d get teary eyed at the thought of having to get up and go to work. My body doesn’t deserve this sentiment, but sometimes I hate it (but I always forgive myself). I recently went on a private retreat at a Benedictine monastery and found it a wonderful period of silence, prayer, and reflection. I’d recommend it to anyone (and you don’t have to be Catholic). It’s good to not be consumed by illness for a change and to find a healthy part of me that MM cannot touch- my spirit!

Yes everyday! It’s not as bad in the summer

If you have had it for 8 years and you are a bit achy, good for you. I not only ache but hurt where my cancer is. Because it affects your bones and spine so much, it pretty much has done a number in me in the pain department but when I was in remission the pain was much less.
