I was wondering if anyone else gets a really sick feeling when you do to much? I also get really tired where if I don't lay down I throw up. Just wondering if it is just me or others have this problem. I use to be able to go nonstop on little sleep for days now I feel sick if I go out for more than three hours.

When I do too much I start shaking and almost collapse.

Yes, I feel very tired and needing to lay down. If I don't I feel very weak and sick. I can't go out at night to have fun anymore. It's just not worth feeling bad. I sometimes feel like an old women set in my ways for bed which is early! No partying here! Lol

I also feel like an old lady. At 34 if I am not in bed by 9pm I really start to feel sick. Glad to know I am not the only one.

Sleep and rest are important for fibromyalgia sufferers. And having a sleep routine is important. Going to bed aprox the same time each night.

I find I am doing better on less sleep than I use to. I wake up really early every morning for some reason. So I think I am getting about six hours a night and that is working for me. I use to be an 8 hour person. And was sick if I didn't get the eight hours. Now I am good on six.

I hope you all find your niche for rest and pace yourself when doing things that are hard. Repetition in movement can fatigue the muscles.

Hugs, Karen...

jrjenn5: Yes, I think I know what you mean. I have to really watch myself when I'm feeling fairly well because I tend to then overdo it and have to pay for it later.

I'm also one who has to be in bed by 9 PM--not 9:30 or even 9:15, because those few minutes, I've found, make a difference. Sometimes, I even need to lie back down for about 10 minutes, an hour or so after getting up, though I'm an early riser (5:15 AM). As Karen says, having a sleep routine is important.

One thing I've been noticing since taking more care for sleep is that occasionally I'll get that second wind (though not a strong one!) later in the day. I think we really have to pamper our fibro bodies at times, and having a regular routine seems to be key.

Hope you and everyone has a great day and wonderful weekend! :)
