It is meant to inform and help patients, families, and caregivers. It does not give formal guidelines or recommendations for making decisions about health care.</p><p id="CDR0000062811__295">Editorial Boards write the PDQ cancer information summaries and keep them up to date. These Boards are made up of experts in cancer treatment and other specialties related to cancer. The summaries are reviewed regularly and changes are made when there is new information. The date on each summary ("Date Last Modified") is the date of the most recent change.

Some people with cancer have extreme fatigue most of the time and are unable to carry out day-to-day tasks. Others feel only very tired. Cancer fatigue may also be called cancer-related fatigue or cancer treatment-related fatigue.</p><p id="CDR0000062811__sm_CDR0000814575_3">Cancer fatigue is different from fatigue you may have felt in the past. When a healthy person is tired, fatigue is usually caused by activity and goes away after resting or sleeping. However, cancer fatigue is not completely relieved by sleep or rest and may happen after no or minimal activity.</p><div id="CDR0000062811__sm_CDR0000814575_4"><h3>Cancer fatigue is common</h3><p id="CDR0000062811__sm_CDR0000814575_5">Cancer fatigue is one of the most common side effects of cancer treatment. More than 80% of people with cancer experience fatigue while receiving chemotherapy or radiation therapy.</p></div><div id="CDR0000062811__sm_CDR0000814575_6"><h3>Cancer fatigue can occur at any time</h3><p id="CDR0000062811__sm_CDR0000814575_7">Fatigue can begin at any time—before, during, or after cancer treatment. Sometimes it’s an early symptom of cancer, or it can be brought on by the stress of a cancer diagnosis. Fatigue may worsen gradually as you go through treatment, or it may come on suddenly. Fatigue usually decreases after cancer treatment ends, but some people may still feel fatigue for months or years.</p></div><div id="CDR0000062811__sm_CDR0000814575_8"><h3>Cancer fatigue can affect many areas of your life</h3><p id="CDR0000062811__sm_CDR0000814575_9">Fatigue can affect not only your daily activities but also your family, work, and social life.
