I want to join the tired club.
Hang in there.
Not sure if you are tired of treating....being treated.....being sick....
Or just being tired.
I am there with you on every count.
Hugs,
Geneal

Me too. I went to bed at 8:30 last night, and didn't fall asleep until 1 am. I've been so tired lately, but can't fall asleep.

I'm with Draba. Too tired to fall asleep. My dh doesn't get it. He says "just close your eyes and go to sleep". I wish it were that easy.
Things are super busy at work and I'm am totally, totally exhausted. When I saw my PT yesterday, she asked me what in the world I had been up to as I was stiff as a board. Working, just working.
I sometimes wonder if I'll ever have a normal night's sleep again.

Right there with you guys. I've been sick with this round of illness since Oct 18th. Stupid me went back to grad school after waiting 7 yrs for the chronic Lymes to disappear. All that happened was stress = sick = resurgance of Lymes = sick, sad, and so so tired.
No one ever believes me. I'm never sick ENOUGH to qualify as "really sick" in the eyes of coworkers, family, friends. I've lost almost everyone.
I had no idea others out there felt the exhaustion I do.

Okay....I'm in....exhausted..Luckily I have a sister-in-law who gets my lyme disease...thanks to this forum)..She said on my headstone it'll take an autopsy to say(See..I told you I had chronic Lyme and I was seriously sick!] Just one family member to validate is a blessing. Yes, a change is coming... Posted by StillSick (Member # 17835) on :
Sorry - Did I say October 18? No, that would reasonable --- I've been sick since September 18th. A GI virus, norovirus, sinus infection, and now I think bronchitis. Been on 1 round of antibiotics...and of course now that they've stopped, it's back.
But, alas, no doc will see me. My med school student health clinic (my last reliable source for antibiotics) won't see me as I'm "too complex" at 32 yrs old w/lymes for them to see(?) The ENTs won't see me as I'm too "systemic". The specialists say they don't see anything systemic in my labs. The IDs say "The guidelines say you'll just get better".
I just want to pass my classes, perhaps save my marriage...not be so tired as to miss my life...I'm not trying to abuse the antibiotics. Anyone else finding it impossible to get meds these days?!?
Thank you for posting the title. I thought I was alone.

i'm so tired i have dreams about being so tired. No, really, thats what I dream about, being so so tired.
I took the day off-i'm going to bed!
Posted by desertcanyon (Member # 17998) on :
Me too! I am *so* tired. I've hardly been able to do anything today. I'm frustrated with being able to get so little done from day to day. I'm lonely. I'm disgusted. I want to get on with my life.
Last week, I dreamed someone was knocking on the door, but I was so exhausted, I couldn't move.
I wonder if someone actually was at the door, because it seemed to go on forever -- the knocking, me trying to make my way to the door, not being able to get there -- and it's only 7 steps!
