Hi all,

In my many years (too many to count) here on the forums, we see frequent discussions regarding fatigue.  It is known that any kind of brain tumor (benign or malignant) can bring on fatigue.  We have shared a terrific brochure for Brain Tumors and Fatigue written by Dr Peter Black and Nancy Conn-Levin.  Once again, I'd like to offer this up to those here that may find it a good read and helpful:

http://www.brainsciencefoundation.org/Portals/0/Uploads/Documents/Public/bt_and_fatigue.pdf

Many here over the years have found this helpful in the remedies it offers to help counteract fatigue. I hope you find it helpful as well.

The link is still not working. I was glad to see this validation of fatigue and would like to read the article. I will try to search for it as well.

Marla B is very active in the forums.  Hopefully, she can post an update from what she has learned from the BrainScience foundation (and maybe an active link) soon.  :)

It looks like this might be a working link for this old document regarding Brain Tumors and Fatigue:
