My guess is depression is a symptom but not a cause of fatigue. Hard to not be depressed if you're exhausted.

Went back to work recently doing two hour shift for some money. I use to do twelve hour shifts without a break in a kitchen and not be remotely close to how tired i am after just two. I go to work for two hours then end up in bed all day! People really don't know what i mean when i say i'm tired, i get so tired it takes effort just to respond to people.

Traumatic brain injury has given me a fatigue burden I had not experienced while I was an active duty army soldier for three years. 13 years of living with a traumatic brain injury has given me a very esoteric perspective of life I'm needing to do something with to benefit myself and everyone else involved.

Totally agree with rest, sleep, diet and keeping fit. 👍 Also add into that keeping mentally active and keeping the mind engaged by doing things that you enjoy. I feel it helps to create positivity. 12 years with MS I have bad days with my MS, especially fatigue but you learn to adapt and work around what works for you and your body.

That's if you don't have other issues with sleep. I had a Healthcare professional tell me, "look, if your body isn't making or interpreting the sleep hormones, you won't be able to sleep, no matter how tired you are." I've found that to be true. I can be lying down, too tired to open my eyes, but unable to actually sleep. It's awful.

Got my MS in my early 40s but it was in remission for about 20 years and not diagnosed until my early 60s. I worked part time while raising three kids and my symptoms were rather mild until my mid to late 60s. My fatique is more depression related and having to get up at night to use the loo so I often have to catch up on the sleep I lost though I'm sleeping better now after 20 years of insomnia. Many top psychologists worldwide and people with MS in the UK where it's very prevalent esp. Scotland have linked MS to trauma, how about caused by ongoing stress since childhood and many experts have linked it to psychological trauma and great loss! How about we start linking MS to not only the physical body but to the mind and spirit as well, the body, mind and spirit connection since it's all connected i.e. HOLISTIC health! Many top psychologists have linked MS to emotional stress and state that too much chronic stress has created auto-immune diseases, not only MS and leading researchers in the UK have said it goes all the way back to the Vikings! I'm of English/Scottish/Irish background on my maternal side with a little French. There's a very high rate of MS in Canada, the UK and in Aberdeen Scotland where my ancestors were from, but there is no record of anyone in my family history with MS. Also, very high rates in the Orkney/Shetland islands just north of Scotland and anywhere above the 37th parallel due to lack of sunlight, hence the need for Vitamin D3 with K2 which helps the body to absorb the D3. "knowledge is power"....self-empowerment!

My experience is it isnt fatigue. It's a complete shutdown of my system in order to preserve brain function. I have to down "tools" and allow my body to "reset". I can turn to glucose when I feel an attack coming on.

Why is my fibromyalgia exactly like this? I know I'm not alone, are they both caused by a virus? Mine was started by cytomegelo virus.
@OddlyElly3 жыл бұрын
Definitely push for an MRI and seeing a neurologist. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia 3 years ago and am currently recovering/in a flare which gave me "stroke-like" symptoms so the A&E doctors recommended I be referred to neurology. Fibro and MS behave incredibly similarly, especially with onset - period of high stress/viral infection. Hormonal birth control and Epstein-Barr Virus (glandular fever/mono) are also thought to be triggers. Cytomegalovirus is part of the (HHV-5) viral herpes group which includes mononucleosis and pneumonia. I'm nervous and hopeful that an MRI will show something that the CT scans and blood tests haven't.

Nice video but doctors, normally, don't prescribed drugs for fatigue. I was told that there is no specific drug that cures MS fatigue. I was recommended life style changes like pace yourself. I think this is why my doctor didn't say anything about fatigue in the beginning. I found out about fatigue, as I was going thorough it.

@majcherj15 жыл бұрын
He’s not saying that at all. He’s just saying it doesn’t correlate with the MS brain lesions, so it’s caused by some other process in the body, not the lesions. Research has not yet identified what that process is. You can have more brain lesions, but less fatigue, and you can have fewer lesions, but more fatigue. Also, depression is not “all in your head.” It’s caused by a problem with serotonin uptake in the brain, yes-but it’s not imagined, as “all in your head” might suggest. Maybe watch the video again, with all that in mind. You might view it differently. Having the feeling that someone isn’t validating your symptoms is awful.
