Hi all. Hope you’re doing ok.
just wanted to ask if feeling tired is normal before any treatment. For the past week I have felt like body tiredness and doing hoovering and other things. Also lost appetite. Which mine wasn’t great to start with as I’m not really a food person. I do eat but just nibble more. Thanks
I would have said it's normal. I felt tired before diagnosis but just assumed i wasn't going to bed early enough but now know it was the cancer. I think once diagnosed and leading up to treatment its normal to feel tired from all the emotional and mental side that goes with a cancer diagnosis. Sending hugs. Xx
