Hiya Georgiamay, and first of all, so sorry that you and your husband are going through this.  I had chemo 3 years ago and I can definitely relate to the chronic tiredness.  The chemo itself wasn't that bad......or certainly nowhere near as bad as I imagined it would be.  However, after each session I would get home and sleep for HOURS.  After the first four sessions I had awful leg pains, and I was given morphine for this.  If your husband is experiencing pain, perhaps he could mention it to his medical team?  It used to take me about a day to recover from each session. Hope that was some help to you, sending my best wishes to both of you, xx

Thanks you for replying.      He is now in hospital as he has picked  up an infection.     He is better today but I think we underestimated the potency of,this,chemo,drug.  Thanks for your best wishes which are reciprocated xx
