My 28 Yr old son just had an Occ health assessment, by a ' highly qualified' doctor, who told him that his chronic fatigue and insomnia were not related to paediatric Medullablastoma, 31 sessions of radio to brain and spine, then 8 courses of chemo. All radio sessions required a G.A,  as he was non-compliant, plus more for gastrectomy, and bike duct spent.

Following all this,  he had Scarlet fever, Pancreatitis, requiring a spent, then leading up to G.C.S.E's contracted Glandular Fever. 

In the last 3 years, Covid × 3, which wiped the floor with him.

Is the Dr wrong, or me?

  • Hello and thank you for your enquiry,

    As nurses, unfortunately, we can't give you a second medical opinion on this. Some late effects can occur from previous treatments.

    However, there is also emerging evidence of long term effects of fatigue from having episodes of Covid.

    I am sorry that we cannot help you in more depth with this.

    Best wishes,
