A couple of questions about energy level after radiation. How do you know if you're tired from treatment or if something is wrong? It seems like I had more energy a month ago then I do now. Of course, I'm doing more now then I was a month ago.........but it just seems like my body gets so tired and sore now! We took down the Christmas tree and all our decorations today and by the time we were done I was tired as a baby, lol. Is it common for the energy level to go up and down after treatment? How do we know if it's not our body telling us something is wrong? Thanks guys,
Minnie
