Have you completed your cancer treatments and still continue to feel worn out and tired? If so, you are not alone. A recent study shows that many cancer survivors continue to suffer from chronic fatigue for several years after they have finished treatment. In some cases the fatigue may be so severe that it interferes with daily living and may even be linked to depression. Many continue to suffer in silence because they are told that these lingering symptoms are “normal.” That is simply not true!
Cancer all by itself causes significant nutritional imbalances in our bodies. This is often made worse by treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation and surgery. Many people do not realize how crucial it is for our bodies to have the proper amounts of vitamins, minerals and amino acids. They are unaware that there are specialized tests available that may be able to identify nutritional deficits which are contributing to fatigue.
I know because I was once one of those patients. My name is Gretchen Fleischmann and I am a breast cancer survivor who once suffered from fatigue and depression. I am also a Nurse Practitioner with several years of Oncology experience and I can help you feel better!
