Hi Debs 5853. Best advise listen to your body if hubby needs to sleep then that’s what he heeds. As treatment progresses everything builds up tenember once treatment finished he will more than likely continue to feel worse. It’s all par for the course. Any questions just ask one of us will always try ti get back to you. It’s hard but if I can do it anyone can.
