4 months agoI finished 31 sections of radiation, but after that, I fell so tired
Accepted Answer
Feeling exhausted after completing radiation therapy is very common and completely understandable. Radiation treatment can continue to affect your body for weeks or even months after your final session, as your healthy cells work to repair themselves and your energy gradually returns. Many people in this community have shared similar experiences with post-treatment fatigue, so you're definitely not alone in feeling this way.
