It will get better otm. Trouble is (to be professor gig of the bleeding obvious) when you feel physically sick it makes you feel worse emotionally. It is particularly hard when all the simple things you used to do are wiped out (I should have known just prior to dx something was very wrong when I couldn't walk across the kitchen).
The two things that helped me to feel better were topsy saying you have to go through grieving for your old life so the whole grief curve (shock , denial, anger, sadness- and they don't all come in sequence). This can come back but you learn to deal with it better, recognise triggers and have ways of coping (wine fbs etc 
).
The other thing is mas great advice on mindfulness. Now I don't pretend to be there yet on meditation but the premise of living in the moment is a great one. It takes the sting out of not being able to change the past (your dx) or the future (what will happen) and concentrate on living for today.
On a more mundane level, I found it helped me take back some control as I could focus on how I felt today (eg well, sick , tired). If I need meds/help to feel better I can ask and focus on that . If not it is about what I can do (usually arse about on Mn 
) but it has began to make more sense and feel normal as way to live than my old way of rushing about, planning ahead etc.
Haven't watched either this week or last weeks parades end as it does require more brain power than most of my viewing (mas I love love bad education - it is so childish and funny ).
mas that is good news about your hair- makes it a lot easier as don't get the "are you ok" looks (although I am far less bothered than I thought - am down to my last eyelash now!).
