Just joined the forum. Got one chemo session left which will be number 12 & I’m really struggling with fatigue.
Any tips to get through it & lessen the effects which are crippling me at the minute? My last theoretical session is 22nd September

Hello Raymondo19
I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling so much with fatigue at the moment. You've done amazingly well to get through 11 sessions of treatment so far, and I can imagine that it has been exhausting on so many levels for you.
Hopefully some of our community members who have experience with fatigue will reply to share their tips and advice with you but in the meantime, you might find it helpful to have a look at the information on our website about managing and treating cancer fatigue.
I hope that after your last session on the 22nd, things will settle and improve for you over the coming weeks and months but don't be afriad to reach our to your care team if you feel that things aren't improving. If it would help to chat with one of our nurses at any point you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. I know they will be happy to listen and offer any advice, information and support they can.
Good luck with your last session Raymondo19. We will be thinking of you.
Best wishes,
Jenn
