Thanks Zoffiel, it is all very frustrating. This pushing past it was my GP's idea. ( I am sure they think its in my head!! ) So I can report that I think I would become physically ill if I kept trying to push past it. I don't get it every day at least now but once or twice a week, at the moment. Other days I'm not exactly full of energy, but I don't need an avo sleep!! ie sometimes its not a brick wall but a spider web that just slows me down. I too have tried various supplements as well, and the green smoothies and vege juices. I feel fat and lazy, my fitness levels are probably sunk, which is probably not helping, according to my fit bit thingy most days I do 9000 - 10000 steps, but surprise, surprise on my bad days its more like 3000 - 4000. I am not on ant drugs currently (accept thyroid one that was not caused by chemo HA) had 4 AC 4 Docs & hercepton, (Still reckon that my thyroid got dangerously low on chemo and all the "roundup" as one Margie aptly said stayed on my system too long, docs love that explanation). If its only a year for you it could well be not permanent - I have improved a lot from the early days but after so long think it might be just how it is for me. CRAP. I started my BC JOURNEY (ha ha) a young person and came out the other end an old lady. I'll just shuffle along now...
