Managing fatigue
My fatigue is getting worse. I don’t know what else to do. I’ve talked to my neurologist couple times she doesn’t feel it’s related to my MS, which I don’t know how it can be. Makes it hard to keep a job. It makes it hard to even function some days most days.
'm so sorry you’re going through this. It must be incredibly frustrating not to have clear answers, especially when fatigue is affecting your daily life and ability to work. It’s understandable to feel like it could be linked to your MS, even if your neurologist isn't sure. Have you considered seeking a second opinion or asking about other possible causes or treatments for the fatigue? I hope you’re able to find some answers soon. All in all, you're not alone in this, and we're here to support you. Warmly, Latoya (Team Member) there are times when fatigue is so bad that I have had to pull over to the side of the road or in a parking lot to take a short nap to feel like I am able to drive. My goodness! Needing to pull over just to rest shows how overwhelming it can get. It’s good that you’re listening to your body and taking those breaks when you need to, especially when it comes to something as important as driving. Staying safe is key, but I can imagine how frustrating it must feel to be hit with that level of exhaustion out of nowhere. Continue to listen to your body and rest whenever your body needs it! You're in my thoughts, Latoya (Team Member)
I need to get someone to ride with me due to fatigue as I need to stop and walk around my car to shake off fatigue!!
