Hi Just

We all seem to be different. Some can work through chemo treatments
and some can't get their heads off the pillow. I think fatigue is a very
common side affect from chemo.

I gradually got over the fatigue problem but it took more than a year.
I hope this helps some. If it's really severe, you could talk to your
onc or onc nurse about it.
