— -- Shannen Doherty is documenting her "road to recovery" after chemotherapy.
The "Beverly Hills, 90210" actress took to Instagram on Thursday to share what she did the day after her treatment.
Physical activity, she noted, is of utmost importance to her.
"It's not always easy and sometimes I can't do it the next day but I try to make an effort to get the blood flowing and the toxins out of my body thru [sic] working out," she wrote. "Some days are easy workouts and other days I push it but the key is to MOVE!!!"
Doherty, 45, revealed last year that she'd been diagnosed with breast cancer. She had a single mastectomy this past May, and she told "Entertainment Tonight" in August that the disease had spread to her lymph nodes. She is now receiving chemotherapy and will later undergo radiation therapy.
"Yes I was tired, yes I wanted to be in bed but I went and moved and felt way better," she continued. "Any exercise during illness is good. We can do it!!!"
