Been having trouble sleeping lately, but I have been managing. Then, about lunch time, the fatigue hit me. I have been just wiped out tired. I can feel it all over. Thing is,I lay down and can't sleep. I just hate it when it hits you out of nowhere.

Years ago I didn't understand MS fatigue. All I knew was I'd be out somewhere, even maybe just riding in the car with m husband driving, and all of a sudden I'd feel such fatigue like an invisible weight was holding me down.
I don't get the sleepy fatigue, not everybody does. I get the body fatigue (sounds like that's what's happening to you.)
I always equate it to being at the dentist and having them put that lead weight apron on that they used while taking x-rays...then having to lug it around. Or being in a chair, and having some invisible force just hold you down. It's hard to explain.
But I do know it can hit and hit hard in a moment's time and there's no predicting when it's going to hit.
I even developed a "plan" for if I was out alone doing errands, and had it hit...to the point I didn't think I could drive home. I had family members on alert, that if that happened, they'd have to come drive me home, and we'd worry about getting the car home later.
Just know...you're not alone.Comment
