Fatigue after radiation

I had radiation 20 years ago. I had extreme fatigue from this. Radiation was at 4:00 pm every day. This was the end of a grueling year of treatments.
I would run my business every day until 3:30, then I would turn it all over to my employees and go for radiation. Most days I would go straight home (30 minute drive) and go straight to bed. Usually not waking until my husband came home 2 or 3 hours later.
I feel like I recovered from the fatigue, but if I am being honest, I still require a pretty high level of caffeine to keep moving all day.
Does anyone else here use caffeine as a regular stimulant during or after radiation? Anything else that helps?
