Fatigue
Whenever you get sick, you will feel much more tired than usual. The same is true for cancer. Finding yourself in a constant state of lethargy may be the product of lifestyle, diet, or other conditions, but you should never consider it as normal. Especially when the fatigue doesn’t abate after getting enough rest.
Cancer-related fatigue is debilitating, because it affects both your mental and physical state. You may experience mental fog and be unable to concentrate, remember details, or even have trouble with speaking. Physically, you may grow tired after short periods of exertion and will oftentimes need to lay down to rest.
