Re: Does the fatigue get better?
I deal with fatique as well. I've been working with a physical therapist that specializes in cancer survivors. He is helping me increase the fitness of my heart and build lean muscle.
I feel I am much less fatiqued than 6 weeks ago when I slumped into his chair for my first visit.
So the right level of exercise might help. I still have fatigue, but feel that my quality of life and energy levels are improving. And my cognitive function is improving.
I finished chemo back in Sept 08.
