Tired of fatigue

Has anyone successfully learned how to take breaks before you think you need them? 😅 The past few weeks, I find myself able to work and do activities for 3-5 hours and then by 2 PM, I am usually so fatigued – clouded with brain fog and physically drained of energy that I cannot do anything but lay...

Struggling with fatigue

What are your tips and tricks for dealing with the constant fatigue? I'm struggling and I'd love to hear how some of you deal with it. I've been trying to ignore ms for so long but it's definitely making itself know lately. Lots of other symptoms too but this one is such a nuisance!

Headache, fatigue and dizziness… is this a new lesion?

Hi everyone. I need a bit advice. I’ve had a headache for about 5 days now and then yesterday afternoon I started to feel dizzy. I’m still feeling the same.

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...

Fatigue

Does the fatigue ever go away? I’m not in a relapse but I’m just so tired so much of the time. I get up early and do everything i need to do in the morning as that’s when I have the most energy, but I now need to nap.

How do you tackle fatigue on the daily?

I'm 24. That's pretty young and I should be bouncing around, no? Lol. But most days I feel as though I have zero energy, not even enough to move my hand. But I do it any way. I have to work to feed myself. I have responsibilities. I work from home so that's a bit easier, but simply getting up from t...
