Cancer fatigue

Hi, I hope you take some comfort in knowing that I too suffer with cancer fatigue as well as fibro and a couple of other silly chronic health issues. Mneh....  You have helped me feel a little better knowing someone else knows. Understands.   Reading your post was like me talking to myself! Except I don't have the fit husband. Lol!  I do everything by myself. Like you I've learned to pace, rest often and put limits on what my expectations of what I can realistically achieve are. Very difficult for an ex Type A personality ( superwoman syndrome!). But....I manage and thankfully can carry on...I hope for some time yet. Having Lanreotide injections will keep my liver tumours (over 30) in check I hope. Had brutal scans yesterday. Spent two hours in the scanner. I don't know if that's good or bad. Thank you for writing so articulately. I don't feel so alone now. Have a lovely evening. Stay safe and well. Cx 

Ty so much for the reply...and glad it gave just a little comfort to u...sound like u had the grueling scans...you'll definitely be shattered now...am always about so just give a nudge if u need a giggle from this mad but very tired girl...hugs

Thank you. I find the laying still for so long during scans very difficult due to degenerated hip and lower spine. It's not painful as such, I just seize up! And it hurts when I bend back into shapeagain! Lol!!  cx

I gorgeous fit person to give u a gentle massage when u come out of the scan...on the nhs of course...

I wish,!! Mind you,one of the doctors there would have done for me. He was gorgeous. Of course I looked stunning in NHS trousers, 2 sizes too small, a NHS gown, hair all over the place, cannula in arm and droopy boobs. I don't understand why he didn't flirt with me.  Ha ha ha.....

My consultant was a bit of alright...but in the 12 months I've know him, apart from a hand shake and marking an arrow on my left leg he hasn't even touched me...even the op was done by robot....I must be losing my touch in my old age....

I feel your pain. Maybe it was because I didn't have those sexy green compression hosiery underneath the king size  red no slip socks!! Beautiful!! Lol!! You gotta laugh haven't you.

Mm I actually like the teal stockings.. much nicer than the white.....yeah u gotta get ur laughs some how...and I am sure they see plenty of cellulite and saggy boob's to not even notice...an to be honest I have had plenty of ops and procedures over the years...I now tend to just go into my happy place in my head......usually with a young David bowie..hehehe
