cancer fatigue

I've already mentioned a bitchin' cancer book that I came across recently - After Cancer.

Of much of the literature that's been published on cancer survival, this is the first I've seen that actually gives a name to an often disbelieved and ignored late effect ... the kind of disbelief that approaches scorn gets levelled at survivors who are labouring under the ongoing fatigue that persists and persists and persists past the end of treatment.

It is called Cancer Fatigue. Now you know.
