Lung cancer and taking dabrafenib and trametinib but sleeping on and off all day deos this effect anyone eles like this thsnk you 

  • Hi  I am sorry to hear you are struggling with fatigue . I do not have any personal experience with your treatment myself, but I have found an information sheet about this which I will add below. It does look like fatigue is a side effect, but if you are finding this extreme and needing to sleep all day, I would speak to your gp about this. If you click on the link below it will take you to the information page.
