I am on my second cycle of ribociclib along with letrozole for ER+ mets in lymph nodes.
While I seem to have the nausea under control now I am struggling abut with seemingly random fatigue. My consultant said it’s likely to be cumulative, a result of doing slightly too much on consecutive days. I would like to be spontaneous but if I am having to plan my activities during the week down to when I hoover this is tricky It’s not helped by the fact I don’t drive and am very used to walking to the shops and back though I am now getting the bus one way under protest!
I’m 58 going on 37 and this makes me feel pretty decrepit. I live alone and am very independent so don’t usually even think to ask for help as I feel like an inconvenience if I do.
How do you manage fatigue on these drugs? Does it improve over time? Any good tips?
