Fatigue - CML -  Chronic Myeloid Leukemia

'Talk to your doctor or nurse about how to manage your tiredness.
Here are some things that you can do:
• Rest often. Take naps when you feel tired. If you are having trouble sleeping at
night, talk to your doctor or nurse.
• Stay active. Exercise such as walking can help your energy level. Do some form
of light exercise each day.
• Eat healthy. Eat a variety of food. Drink plenty of liquids each day unless you
have been told by your doctor to limit liquids. Avoid caffeine.
• Eat smaller meals throughout the day to give you more energy. The body uses
less energy to digest small meals. Eating one or two large meals a day can drain
your energy''
