Hi there,
Im 38 yrs old and finished my treatment last October. I was originally weak, night sweats, lump/pressure in my chest, and losing weight. I was at Stage 2. I had Chemo (ABVD). I felt incredibly better after the first Chemo treatment (Which BTW was about 5 hours long). It takes a long time because there are several different chemicals used. I had one treatment every 2 weeks. First week I was weak, and blitzed out. The second week I was well enough to go to work. I went through the routine for the whole 12 sessions. The treatments got better for me until I was at session 10. Then, believe it or not it got a little difficult. My guess is that when there was no trace of it at my midway point, the Chemo had nothing else to attack. The best advise I can give you is to think positive. I have spoken to many people who had it, although the physical part of this ordeal can be treeated within a certain amount of time, the mental part of it is most challenging. Good luck.
