Hi Dai
Thankyou so much for taking the time to reply to my post, you don't know how much better I feel just reading this , to hear that it is quite normal for him to feel the way he has.
On another plus side my Dad has been taken off all his morphine, so something must be working as he was in a lot of pain before his treatment started.
We live near Milton Keynes and he is being treated at the local hospital which has a Macmillan unit.
Thanks again

Hi Eve

Since my first post my Dad appears to be picking up a bit, I took him to get his haircut and he has been for a couple of walks this week which is the most he has done in the past 6 weeks , he is feeling more positive which is good to see and now Spring is here hopefully that will make all the difference and as you say we need to make the most of the days when he is feeling stronger.I know he has a long way to go with his treatment but fingers crossed we will continue to see an improvement.
Best wishes to you and thanks for taking the time to reply to me.

Hi Eve

Thanks for your reply. It's not that my Dad doesn't want to go out he physically does not have the energy as he feels so unwell. My Dad is not a quitter and is a very positive person so that is why it worries me and upsets me so much to see him like this.He is trying to be cheerful but I know he is finding it very frustrating that he can't do anything. I just wanted to know if it is common for CDT treatment to make people feel like this ?
Thanks Viv
