How do you manage fatigue and symptoms with uveal melanoma?

I have uveal melanoma and am currently managing symptoms with several over-the-counter medications including multivitamins (Centrum and Ocuvite Adult 50+), Goody's Extra Strength Headache Powder for pain, ZzzQuil for sleep, Systane eye drops, vitamin B12, and Zyrtec (cetirizine) for allergies. I've been experiencing severe fatigue and headaches lately. My care team knows about these symptoms and is helping me assess them. I'm learning that some of these medications can interact with each other and may affect things like dizziness or sleep patterns. I'd love to connect with others who have uveal melanoma about managing day-to-day symptoms and supportive care. • How did you handle fatigue and other symptoms during your treatment? • What over-the-counter supportive care approaches worked best for you?

Managing fatigue and headaches with uveal melanoma can be challenging, and it's great that your care team is aware and helping assess these symptoms. Many others in this community have found that balancing supportive care approaches takes time and patience, and connecting with fellow patients who understand this journey can provide valuable insights and encouragement.
