Hi Pam! I'm sorry to hear about your fatigue. When my wife was on Taxol, she suffered from it also. I don't know anything about your diet or eating habits, but it may help if you change things a little. I recommend a book "the Cancer Survival Cookbook", by Donna Weihofen and Christina Marino. It's not the greatest book in the world, but there are some good recipes and good advice for dealing with fatigue, nausea, etc. For fatigue, eat smaller meals more often, and eat the most when you feel the best. My own advice is to abstain from animal protein and fats during the day. Stick with almonds, walnuts, yogurt, fruits and veggies during the day and then have some healthy meat at dinner. I keep a bag or two of frozen cranberries and blueberries in the freezer and once in awhile grab a handful. It's refreshing and healthy. I can't help with the house-cleaning. I have my own issues here, only I have no good excuse. Warm thoughts and prayers, Bill
