I'm sorry to hear your husband may still be experiencing some late side effects from his chemotherapy Jacqueline.
As you'll see here, 'many people feel more tired than usual for a long time after chemotherapy treatment. This is most likely to happen after a lot of treatment, or very intensive treatment'.
I'm sure some of our members who have experienced tiredness and fatigue after their chemo will share their experiences and advice with you soon but if you'd like to read up on some tips for helping your husband manage this then do head over to the tiredness with cancer (fatigue) section of our website.
Our team of cancer nurses are available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m if you'd like to discuss this with them as well but if you or your husband are worried do be sure to talk things through with his GP or cancer team.
Best wishes to you both,
Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
