I'm so tired. igo to bed about 8-9. wake up anywhere from 3 to 6. stay up till about 2-3 and then jus poop out.

I sit down and can barely keep my eyes open. tape tv shows cause I'm too sleepy to watch em.

I'd say almost exhaustion. I run the vacuun, do laundry and then crash. cleaned bathtub and toliet and said no way.

I jus have zero energy. snore.....

Methylation issues do this to me...

Other things to consider:

B-Vitamin deficiency, esp. B5 (Pantothenic Acid), Niacin, and B12.

Low Thyroid

Toxin buildup

Herxing

Medication side-effects (e.g., Cipro makes me very sleepy)

Low Adrenals

Iron deficiency

I felt that way until treating adrenals. I still struggle with energy but it's so much better now that my adrenals are recovering.

I did stop my cortef but i cant relate that to current fatigue

Im.wondering if cancer coming back can make fatigue...or if the fatigue related to cancer really comes from the tx

I pushed to shovel some snow this morning...and i was resting so i could go out and finish...but i.just couldnt

Two long naps...not much else. Ready for bed

But in the cfs thread i think rhey were saying having no gag reflex goes with it. Mine is very strong
