Having enough hydration would make him feel less tired. ChristineB is right, it's so important to be adequately hydrated. The only time my husband was dehydrated was after his first chemo, about the end of the second week into his rads. He went from passing out in the doctor's office to being his normal self after he was given intravenous hydration. Thereafter, it was never a problem to get him to take in fluids. Make sure you keep an eye on his fluid intake and he should feel a lot better.
Keeping you both in my thoughts.
