When you hit the FATIGUE wall does it hurt? I mean I am so fatigued it hurts. Does that make sense to anyone? Not like I stubbed my toe pain, but like hurts to move. I can't seem to be able to explain it to anyone.

Does your fatigue hurt?

Yes!
I know exactly what you mean, cali. There are times when I almost feel flu-ish when I get extremely fatigued. For me it's an all-over achiness, though sometimes I end up with spasms, too. At times it even feels as though my head is too heavy for my neck. It's like all of my muscles are fatigued and it takes more energy than I've got to keep myself upright (either sitting or standing). These things are often difficult to put into words, but I do mean what you know!I enjoy reading these threads because mostly people here "get it," whereas my family and friends just have to take my word for it.

YES! Someone else actually gets this. When that hits, I sometime find it too difficult to get up and get to the other side of my bed. I often sit on the left side (to use my iPad, or watch TV), but to lie down, I need to get in on the right side. It's the only way I can get my 'bad' leg up on the bed. I can't function when this hits. If it comes on fast, I just grab a pillow and lean to one side, with my feet still on the floor. I'll immediately drop off to awaken an hour or so later and go around to the other side of the bed to lie down right. It sounds crazy, but it hurts too much to move.

I must totally agree
I hurt so bad in my shoulders and upper arms that it wakes me up during the night. When I try to get out of bed to take something, I can not move at all. I did not realize how much I used my shoulders and upper arms to maneuver in and out of my bed. It is so miserable for a couple hours after getting out of bed while trying to get my joints to loosen up. I have to keep telling myself that this is just a temporary symptom of MS and that it will go away next week only to be replaced by another problem.

yes it does. I can tell I'm about to have a bad ms day when I start walking in the morning. It feels like my body is sinking down into and onto, my hips and core. It is so hard to describe to anyone. It both hurts and scares me, I worry and wonder if it's starting a new relapse or am I just going to be super fatigued.

So that's what it is!
It's not just that they don't make toothpicks
heavy-duty enough to keep the peeps open.
It's feeling like I'm coming down with something at the same time. Achy all over...like
my skin hurts. Eureka!!
Explains why, by morning, all systems are back
to fully functional.....situation normal....the kid
back in the upright and locked position. All this
time, I thought my immune system had
actually won a round!
Who knew!
