Hi all my name is Becky I was just diagnosed with RRMS. It has been raining non stop in Western Pennsylvania and I have been so run down and in so much pain I also have osteoarthritis which doesn’t help matters! Anyone else that can relate or offer any advice? Oh and my right arm and right leg always feel like they are sleeping it is so annoying!

Fatigue and running

Hello. I’m interested to know how those runners amongst you manage your fatigue? I’ve been a runner for years and used to do reasonable distances quite happily. But lately anything over about 5/6km leaves me feeling broken for days. Absolutely wiped out. I never used to suffer with fatigue but f...

Hi everyone, my name is Ish. I want to know what is the general experience about diagnosis, I still running round after five years... Is there something in particular that I need to talk about with my doctor or is this just the norm? Thank you all x

Anyone suffering from extreme fatigue? I don’t even exercise anymore because it takes so much out of me. I just finished grocery shopping and feel like I’ve run a marathon. It’s really impacting the quality of my life.

So I’ve had really long road. Got sick in March 20 20 of course lol so it took about 20 months to get my diagnosis and in that time I got misdiagnosed two or three times. so here I am. Got my official diagnosis in January 2022 and I still feel like I have to explain myself to my close friends about how I don’t want to travel and go to a bunch of noisy places. I feel like they haven’t even looked into my disease. Some people have, and they tell me I’m doing great. The ones I haven’t act like I should be able to just go out and run a mile… super frustrating. How do y’all deal with people that refuse to look into your disease?

I just came across this sight and thought bought I would look into it . I have been diagnosed with MS. For 20 years they believe it was active younger but wasn't found . I also have fibromyalgia I'm 49 years old and I still try to live a 35 year olds life . I have four beautiful kids and four beautiful grandchildren, I run my at home childcare Monday - Friday and play on the weekends with my own children and grands some weekends I get to sleep in and rest all day I feel I pay the price in pain rather often no matter if it's a busy or lazy day .im hoping to find more outlets to help with dropping things . I can't hold or carry things on left side of my upper body. Also can't sleep so I take sleeping meds anyone else have these issues? Does anyone find things to lessen anxiety or pain ? Thank you hope everyone has a wonderful day
