Tiredness!!! I have never been so constantly tired in all my life as I have been since having secondary breat cancer to the bones. It is a state of exhaustion that overwhelms me at times and the best way I have found to manage it is to have a couple of rest breaks each day in between my daily activities. Either a nap or just restful time outs. If I do this I can enjoy my days and my activities and not feel that this cancer has deprived me of the pleasures I enjoy. I guess I am saying I have learnt to pace myself to not allow my body to get too tired because if I do it takes too many days to recover and on those days I do feel deprived because I spend those days doing nothing but rest and sleep!
