Fatigue

Hiya Until I get to receive a ms team, I wondered if anyone had any tips on managing fatigue please? I have a healthy lifestyle and sleep well. I cannot exercise at the moment due to my bambi legs playing up but am soon to now get some help with them, fingers crossed!

Hi! I had the same problem with my legs when I got diagnosed and I had to relearn to walk. Any exercise is better than no exercise so maybe try to still do workouts with your arms/abs. I went swimming - starting with 10 minutes swims and adding time as my legs got stronger. I found swimming helped a lot when you struggle with bambi legs. The workout might make you have more fatigue until you get stronger though.. I have started eating differently - cutting out many processed sugars (not all.. got to treat yourself every once in awhile), drinking 2 liters of water a day, doing yoga/meditation, and getting fresh air everyday. All of these things have helped with my fatigue. Everyone is different so my best advice is to try different things (different workouts, coffee/tea, changing eating habits, getting fresh air) for a period of time and find what works for you and your lifestyle =)
