Cyclical fatigue 10 months out

Hi all! I finished rchop for DLBCL 10ish months ago. Last infusion of chemo was mid October 2023, last rituximab late November, clean scan mid December…

I still seem to have periods of intense fatigue, possibly linked to mild viral infections (cold), but maybe not… these seem to be happening roughly every six weeks, and take 5-10 days to recover from. Does anyone else experience this?

My oncologist seems to think it’s not an issue (his mantra: “it’s normal”). He also told me that, because of my specific subtype and early stage, he’s “quite sure it will not return.” (He is a v highly regarded doc here in Berlin).

But damn. This depleted energy really really sucks. It’s my fourth day of this crash cycle…

Thing is, I just landed my dream job, and I feel a bit depressed like: “what if I can’t take the activity and stress of the job? What if these crashes keep happening?”

I also feel mega thirsty when it happens, which once again seems to be no great cause for concern…

Not sure if this is a question or just a rant. :p
