Hi 

Over the last 3 months when doing anything physical I get a extreme feeling of tiredness and want to sleep, if I do sleep it messes with my night time sleep so I do try to avoid it.

Could this be  a result of the radiotherapy and hormone treatment?

  • I just registered because I have exactly the same problem.

  • Hi  I can’t recall when you finished RT but both that and HT cause fatigue.  RT can be a year after you last finish but generally would only be months.  In my experience you need to exercise up to the point before you are exhausted.  I find if I push too hard I am completely done in, but can recover after 15 mins or so.  Hope this helps.  David

  • Still got 10 months left on Triptorelin, some of my problems were due to lack of B12, 6 injections over two weeks and one every three months to eternity, but what a difference it has made.The hormone seems to wear off towards the end of the 6 month period, then starts to kick in about 3 weeks after the next injection..

    Ten months seems to be a long way off at the moment.
