Hi Michele,

Funny you should bring up the sleeping topic; I was actually thinking about that this morning.

Before diagnosis, 6 or 7 hours would do me just fine, and I got back into my old sleep schedule not too long after I had done chemo & rads. Then I just had brain surgery in April, in which they implanted radiation seeds onto the cavity of my tumor area. It's been 3 months now, and fatigue is starting to set in. I'm currently requiring 10 hours of sleep. I'm thinking that the seeds are probably affecting my body the same way just like the normal rads. Remember how we would feel tired towards the end of rads?
