Walking sticks and fatigue

My question is: would a walking stick make walking less fatiguing or is it just to help with balance? After a recent flare, I find that fatigue is stopping me from getting out and about. I’ve rested for 3.5 weeks taking just 10 min walks five times but otherwise staying in the house (I’m a girl w...

Exercising while fatigued?

Hi all, I've just had Covid and although the virus wasn't that bad, it's caused a bit of a flare up of old symptoms, which I guess is to be expected. But the main one is my old friend fatigue (yay!). I know rest is obviously important while I recover, but I usually exercise a lot and having spen...

Fatigue and Aching

I was only recently diagnosed - back in May last year - and through all different symptoms, fatigue and achiness seem to be particularly insistent. I was wondering if anybody had some advice for dealing with any of them?

MS fatigue

Hi friends. How do you cope with MS fatigue? I have battled this for 20 years. It seems to be getting worse and worse. I need to pull myself out of it somehow. Feeling like all I do is lay in bed and sleep. That’s no way of life. I know I can get some sense of strength back. I would love to hear al...

Fatigue and emotions

Happy New Year to you all. I was diagnosed with RRMS in October 2020. I have told my close family and a few friends about my MS but don't like sharing too much with them as I know it upsets them as they can't relate. This past month life has just been a challenge with one thing and another and it'...
