Hi there, I have not been around veery much for the last coupleof months, but I am here today, and seen your post and wanted to respond to it...
A couple of years ago, I was going thru the same thing as you - severe fatigue that really does crunch one's life style. When I became tired, which seemed to be all the time, my vision would go, Id get dizzy, absolutely no energy, so I layed out on the couch for most of the day...oh and my hands would start to tingle and become numb as well...
So after starting treatment, and a considerable amount of time, I began to notice and monitor and become familiar with some things that did trigger the fatigue. Now what works for me may or may not work for u, but they might at the same time...;so here it is..
Reduce the fat in your diet....
Drink plenty of water, etc, as well, whole grains etc...
Become aware when u are too warm. I have problems, as with most other people with MS, in regulating body heat...sometimes I am too cold, which is OK, but sometimes I get too warm....sometimes I do not even know that I have become too warm, until all of my symtpoms have surfaced. so I have to sit back and think to myself, what is causing these symptoms to surface....and more times than enought it's because I am too warm....When u become to warm, or overheat, this REALLY brings on Fatigue, big time....so when I am not careful and this happens, I eliminate my self from the heat by a variety of fashions, and then take a nap to kinda recharge the battaries....
I know that this will seem crazy, and I know what you will be thinking, as you stated that you get soo tired that you are just done - but some moderate exercise...a walk in the park....I found that even when I did not think I could muster it, I made my self go for a walk, or something, and I could actually feel the fatigue begin to lift....I find that if I do this at least once a day, the fatigue is not so bad, and then becomes managable....yes there are days when no matter what I do, what I eat, etc...the fatigue is there and I have to just ride it out...but it has been proven that a little walking or something like that will in fact help lif the fatigue...
Just some tips that have worked for me....so watch for food intake, that u do not get too tired (tiredness bring on tiredness) take naps if and when u can, and do not get too warm
regards,
Gary
