Hi Decdoe and thank you for your post.
I'm sorry to read that you are experiencing fatigue ( tiredness) following your operation for liver cancer, and the impact that this must be having on your day to day life.
It is very normal to experience severe fatigue following cancer treatment, although everyone’s experience is different.
Fatigue is common for weeks or months after liver surgery as your body is directing significant energy into healing.
Leaf has more information about post surgical fatigue on their website which you may find interesting to read.
We also have a page on our website about managing fatigue which you might find helpful.
You may also like to discuss your concerns with your hospital team who may have suggestions on how to cope with the fatigue.
Please get back to us if you need any more information or support.
It might help to talk things through with one of our nurses on the helpline. You can call for free on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.
Kind regards,
Tina
