Fatigued at the end of the day
I am glad you posted this question, because it has been lurking in my mind. I finshed Herceptin Dec 19, 2007. I find I can go full speed a head for about 6 days and then I hit "a wall." Just reminds me that I can not over book myself, with work or with social. I would prefer to slow down and not hit the wall. I was so excited to be off of chemo and only on Herceptin, that it took me awhile to figure out that I was still "fatigued." Now that I have accepted the fatigue part, I am working to be smarter at my schedule.
I am so thankful to be well. My thoughts are with everyone on the site even though I have not been here much lately. I luckily just returned from a 2 plus week stay in Arizona with my husband. I feel rested and happy.
Now to the challenge of not going full speed ahead tomorrow.
