Hello Rashford123
I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis and the struggles that you're having at the moment. It sounds like it's been a difficult time for you.
Fatigue is a known side effect of immunotherapy and if you're struggling with your sleep patterns as well then it's understandable that you're feeling so tired at the moment.
Have you spoken with your care team about this issue? If not then please do reach out to your specialist cancer nurse or your GP for some advice and support. Hopefully they will be able to help improve things for you.
If it would help to chat things through with one of our nurses you can call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.
I do hope that things improve for you soon.
Best wishes,
Jenn
