Fatigue
I'm just wondering how everyone manages their fatigue. Mine is seeming to be getting worst. Today my legs are that heavy I'm surprised I'm able to walk. Does it keep getting worst the more chemo you h...
I found that after each chemo my fatigue got worse, I was literally not able to lift my head off the pillow and my husband needed to wake me to drink as after the 1st chemo he let me sleep and I ended up in hospital dehydrated.
After day 10 I needed a long afternoon nap and I was in bed by 8.30 at night.
Like Bel I had hot bathes and tried minor exersize and found socializing just too much.
But I am 6 weeks post chemo and there are no daytime naps anymore and I can stay up later than 8.30. I can even socialze a little too.
It does get better, so hang in there.
