Alyce,
I asked a 3-year survivor I met a few months ago this exact question. She did say over time it gets better. I sleep well at night thanks to Ambien. It's the mid-day nap that I wake in a panic, I nearly cannot breath. Hoping the tiredness will go away once rads are complete---I need to quit napping!
Where in Ohio are you from? Your onc practices the same protocol as mine in Fort Wayne...no scans unless there are symptoms.
Take Care,
Dana
