Hi Donna,it is indeed very common to feel tired even months after treatment. The energy level seems very difficult to return to normal. I share the same experience with Brian when I was deeply depressed three months after treatment. I was totally indifferent to people and things around, felt sorry for myself to be so useless and helpless. After waking up for an hour, I felt like lying on bed doing nothing and the mind was full of evil thoughts. Like Brian, I needed medicine and counselling to go through this dark period. Keep an eye on your husband and talk to the doctor about the fatigue.
