So I was recently diagnosed with lyme... One of the worst symptoms I have is fatigue. I need at least 10 hours of sleep each night to be comfortable the next day... I'm 15, doing high school and college, working, trying to do extracurriculars, and it seems like I don't have time to do what I want because I need to sleep so much. Is there a way to combat this fatigue? Thanks much

The fatigue is telling you to slow down and give your body a chance to heal. I understand the need to do so much extracurricular stuff, but it isn't worth the toll on your health (I got Lyme at a young age, so I remember how hard High School was with the fatigue and other symptoms).
