long term post-cancer fatigue

I was tired for at least 6 months after surgery. The important thing is when you rest do you feel recovered or are you still tired? If the latter you need to speak with your hospital MacMillan nurse. I am currently still on chemo tablets (20 months after chemo infusions ended) and on my monthly calls with the chemo nurse I am asked if I am experiencing any excessive tiredness which doesn’t improve with rest. It is clearly a red flag for them so you do need to tell them. 

Having said all that consider whether you could improve your overall fitness? If you weren’t fit before treatment and surgery it will take longer to recover. 

Good luck for an improvement. 

Thank you for replying.  Rest doesn’t help though I feel I need it.  Yes I’ve told everybody and it seems there’s nothing to be done , and v little research into fatigue.  I’m not ready for ‘acceptance’ yet, still hoping for a cure!
