In MS fatigue is very common. Fatigue is different from normal tiredness or exhaustion and can cause sudden losses of energy which may interrupt your daily life. It affects everyone differently but often feels like being weighed down or trying to wade through quicksand.

Fatigue

Why is it one day I can feel good enough to do light chores and the next day I'm so tired? This MS feels like a roller-coaster and it's only been 2 years

My story && introduction 💕💕😌😌

Hey MSers 👋🏽 Thought I’d finally pop in and introduce myself! I was first diagnosed with MS back in January 2023 🎢 and let’s just say this journey has been anything BUT boring. Between flare-ups, fatigue, and all the curveballs my body likes to throw at me — I’ve learned that living with MS is ba...

Bereavement with MS

I lost a childhood dog of mine yesterday, not even been 24 hours yet. I’ve been grieving for days since she got sick with pneumonia and she’s 10, I hoped she would get better but part of me knew she wouldn’t recover, tried 3 different vets to help her and she got worse so we had to let her go. I’ve ...

Hi everyone,Living with multiple sclerosis has affected every part of my life. I deal with daily pain, trouble walking, bladder issues, dizziness, vertigo, heat sensitivity, and constant fatigue. Over the years, I’ve tried four different treatments, but none have given me lasting relief—and each came with its own struggles like weight gain, skin problems, high blood pressure, and overwhelming tiredness.Now, I have the chance to try stem cell treatment in Mexico, which gives me hope to regain my independence and get back to living life on my own terms. I’m waiting for a call on July 16, 2025, to move forward, and I need support to make this possible. All funds raised will go toward treatment, travel, and related expenses.If you’re able to help, even by sharing this post, it would mean the world to me as I take this next step toward a better quality of life. Thank you so much for your support.
