@tri thank you for your thoughtful answer. I think the word taxing is particularly relevant for me. After having conversations or engaging with multiple people I feel drained to the point of needing a sleep. I find myself letting other people talk and I just listen and say a few words to show I'm still listening. Its frustrating but i probably need to be more accepting given the rigours of treatment. Even getting my thhoughts organised to talk is a challenge I guess i will need to be patient. Exercise is definitely part of recovery. This is one tough gig.
