Hi @Raelene, the fatigue is quite normal and can last for quite some time after chemo is finished. Don't feel guilty, you didn't ask to get breast cancer. It takes a helluva toll on our bodies so be kind on yourself. If you need to rest, do so as you will only pay for it later.

All the best and please take care of yourself.
