Hello all,
Ive not posted... but have lurked for quite some time.
I was at stage 4a and had a tongue dissection, two additional surgeries, radiation (8 weeks) and chemo.
To add to all of the above, I also was given three times the amount of cisplatin than ordered!Anyway to your point...
I'm 14 months post treatment and actually in pretty good shape(the typical good and bad days) with one MAJOR exception and that is exhaustion!
I'm 48yrs. and as I mentioned, doing well but fatigue is still a big deal 14 months out!
I normally sleep 10+ hrs. but 12 or more is not an exception!
My docs, told me to expect that for at least two more years!
So even though, your son is younger his fatigue, at least compared to my experience is to be expected.
Also, I'm now on provigil which does help... some!
