Hello @sue417 - I combined your discussion with your previous discussion on "Fibromyalgia & Radiation" - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/fibromyalgia-and-radiation/.

I'd like to invite @jpfefferdittes, @julieaz and @brightside21 to this discussion as well as they have all mentioned breast cancer treatment and fibromyalgia and may be able to share their experiences with fatigue after radiation.

@sue417, Have you found anything that helps with the fatigue?

Hi
I hope they respond. My g.p. whom I just started seeing does not believe in ssri's. So I went to my naturopathic dr. She put be back on 5htp which is a supplement for fibro and depression. I was on it for 5 years and went off during my surgeries and treatment. I definitely need it so I am back on it. I am starting to improve. Thank god for her. It's actually better than an ssri . You don't get the side effects if a drug. Fibro is a different animal. Still need to rest around 3:00 in the afternoon. Will be having a discussion with the g.p. if she can't treat me properly will look fir a new one
