Zytiga and Orgovyx: What helps side effects, fatigue and disinterest?

I'm in a similar situation with metastatic cancer in lymph nodes and 10 years since prostatectomy. I've been on eligard/orgovyx and zytiga(with prednisone) since October 2022. --- My suggestion is to stay active, i also work at a computer and take 3 small walks during the workday and have 2lb weights to do light lifting during conference calls and webinars. I need 9 hours of sleep to be well rested, otherwise i get tired and/or have to rest after work. -- stay positive and active, that's my advice

Hi,
Thank you for your reply. I think that is the key to stay active and not dwell on the disease. I continue to encourage my husband to take walks, and I even purchase 5 lb weights for muscle strength. I will continue to persuade him. We went to our oncologist for a routine visit, and he prescribed Remeron and will reevaluate him next month to determine if the Rx should be decreased. I appreciate your feedback. Best of luck to you too.
