Hi
my son has finished radiotherapy for Medulloblastoma tumour which was removed end of March. However for 2 and a half weeks he has literally been in bed as he is so tired, he gets up in the evenings for 1/2 hours only. He is also struggling to eat normally too. Has anyone else experienced this level of fatigue after radiotherapy?

HI Pj999
my husband suffered fatigue for about a month after his radiotherapy finished. The fatigue wasn't quite as extreme as your son seems to be experiencing but it did floor him for a few weeks, much to his great annoyance.
My husband's sense of taste altered during his 6 weeks of oral chemo/radiotherapy in combination but it was impossible to say what triggered that. It too returned to normal a few weeks after the treatment ended
As Mat says though, if you're concerned, speak to the CNS or the Dr.
love n hugs
