My last proton treatment was March 14, 2011. I am feeling pretty good. I just wanted to know how other patients fared with fatigue? I am having bouts of exhaustion and feel very weak. Is this pretty normal? My wife says I need to get on a walking program and build my strength up. I am eating pretty healthy. In fact I am doing Nutasystem. Well, I would appreciate any feedback. My sex life is doing fairly well. and I don't have a problem with incontinence.

Welcome to the site, Paul. It's just starting up as you can tell. You didn't say whether you had Lupron treatment or not.
Low testosterone will affect your energy level as well as cognitive function. I have an abnormal T level not brought now by the hormone shot but by another dysfunction in my gonads so I know about fatigue. I read in one of Dr.Lee's notes,that waking up to make a trips to the bathroom may be affecting your sleep.
Another patient who wrote about rectal bleeding in this forum had low hemoglobin count,something else that could affect your energy level.Regards

Paul, as I was reorganizing the library, the one stored on my computer for the ProtonPals work, I came across this paper. It's brief but highlights the causes and what you might be able to do to manage radiation related fatigue. Here's the link to a PDF copy http://protonpals.net/WP251/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Tired-of-Being-Tired.pdf
I was just at the local doctor yesterday afternoon and I'm going to have her run a test on hemoglobin.
