Fatigue

I have found out what it feels like to have fatigue. I am sleeping 11 hours at night and waking up tired. The other day I only had enough energy to get Jessica off to school and then I was back in bed asleep for 3 hours. Got about 2 chores done and then slept again until Jessica got off the bus. It is very depressing for someone who usually has a day full of energy and gets a lot of things done in a day. I've decided that even though I don't like the taste of coffee right now, it may keep me awake until lunch time. I truly have to say that in the past I haven't been that compassionate to people who say they are fatigued. For that I am sorry, now that I know how it feels and how little you can do when it is hard to keep your eyes open. I have started taking vitamins pills again to see if that may help. I was cautioned about taking too may vitamins while my liver is being treated. Too may vitamins pills can be hard for the liver to process.

It is now 9:30 am and I'm not back in bed!!! I will go walk the dog and see if I can make it until after lunch before I lay down for a rest.

Tomorrow is my CT scan in the afternoon. I don't expect any results until the middle of next week. Then we should have answers about my lungs and whether the chemo for my liver is working or not.

Keep you posted as I have new information.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.
