I actually have been awake since 7 am and have done probably 5x the stuff by 1:30 pm then I do during my normal days. I have been taking some multivitamins but other than that I have not done much different. I guess it is just one of those days. Good to get things done though.

Aloe Vera as an energy booster ? I have never heard of that also . Thanks for the info Gelsemium.

Hello there and welcome to the forum !

I am sorry to hear of all your ailments Melissa. I hope this forum can guide you appropriately and give you some sort of comfort in knowing that other people are going through similar experiences such as you are. By RA you mean rheumatoid arthritis correct ? Wow that is an auto immune disorder...

You can't keep your eyes open due to dry eyes and not making enough tears or because of fatigue ?

I have never heard of such a thing. If it is auto immune then I am assuming there is no cure, only a course of treatment to make you feel better. My dad has colitis (also auto immune).

I don't know if there are any that specifically target fatigue. You can get Vitamin B boosters that will boost your energy. I would strive to find another way through diet. exercise. lifestyle and even homeopathic before I go down that route.

Welcome to the forum Kristie. I hope you find the help and advice you are looking for here.

For sure. When I nap I need someone to wake me up or I am in trouble because I will go 6+ hours without even thinking about it. No my aunt has it . I have chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) though. My body is always weak and tired no matter how much sleep I get.

I sometimes have headaches when I get up. I sleep long hours because of CFS and some days my head just throbs for an hour or so. I think those of you suffering from morning aches should start some kind of stretching regime if possible.

A lot of doctors just prescribe you new meds because they can't pinpoint the problem. So be careful about that. Getting frequent MRIs if you are in pain is a good idea but remember you know your body more than anyone else. Researching online about things is a great idea. I myself suffered from...

Of course it is still active. Poster joined less than a week ago.

Yea hey any exercise is good exercise and walking is probably the best. I prefer to walk out side but treadmill gives you a nice pace or you can set your own.
