Hi @Brondocs - I am so sorry to hear of your Mets diagnosis. :( Gosh, you've been dealt a cruel set of cards.
As @June1952 says, You may like to join the Mets group, where those with more dedicated responses may be able to help you, in private xx @Riki_BCNA should be able to help you join up.
I'll also ask @Mez_BCNA to move your post into it's own segment in the Metastatic Breast Cancer category, so that you'll get more dedicated Mets replies xx
I hope your exhaustion dissipates ....... My Hubby was diagnosed with Mets in January & is on Capecitabine and he hasn't been experiencing any real exhaustion (tho his Oxaliplatin infusion can make him drowsy) - Capecitabine can have some pretty 'ordinary' side effects in itself, so keep an eye out for flaking/peeling hands & feet (pawpaw ointment has helped control his.) I think insomnia would be top of the list with any chemo. :( Hubby is up 2-3 times a night, sometimes for an hour or more at a time. :(
Take care, look after yourself & all the best with your ongoing treatment xx
