Can anyone give me a bit of advice, just over a year ago dp was diagnosed with a germ cell tumour that had spread, he had pretty intense chemo over the following four month and the radiotherapy that ended mid June. Since mid way through the chemo his blood results have all been 'normal' the radiotherapy was described as belt and braces. He had steroids while having radiotherapy and when he initially came off them really struggled so at his next appointment he was given another short course and tailed them of ending about 6 weeks ago. He is still really struggling with fatigue, his last blood test was about 3 weeks ago and that was also normal, his seeing the consultant again on Tuesday. From what I have read it is within the normal range to take 6-12 months to recover from the treatment but wondered if anyone had any ideas on how to help, he is working full time in an office job, I am doing pretty much everything at home so he can rest/relax at home (he has cooked on the odd occasion he has felt up to it). I know you can not advise on specifics but any ideas on what has helped those who have experienced would be appreciated.
