Radiation Fatigue!

WOW!  I have been knocked down over the last few days by Radiation Fatigue!  It began on Wednesday and by Friday and Saturday all I could do was sleep!  Phew!  I am familiar with some fatigue from chemo but this is far worse than anything I have previously experienced.   I am literally "unable to stay awake".  Pure and simple.  I've been up for several short (1 hour) blocks today (Saturday), but mostly I am "napping".  I wonder how long this will last?

Radiation Finished

Anyways...  I had my last radiation treatment on Friday.  15 of 15.  It is good to have it finished.  No bad side-effects apart from the fatigue. 

What Now?

Now we "wait and see" to learn what sort of effect the radiation has.  It continues to work for a few weeks and I'll be back to see the radiation oncologist in about 4 weeks.

Chemo?

I will also be seeing my regular oncologist in the next week or so.  I will learn then if there is any chemo approach that could help.

In the meantime it is NAPTIME....
