Hi Samantha, glad to hear that your husband's blood count is getting better. He can try gentle exercise to help with the fatigue, I know it seems daft when you are tired to try and do some exercises, but it does help, just going for a walk is enough, he doesn't need to go to a gym and do an extreme work out, but moving around does help. Hope it feels better soon. best wishes, Maz
