Guest guest Posted August 8, 2002 Report Share Posted August 8, 2002 As most of you know, I suffer from Rheumatoid Arthritis and not Stills but I have so much in common with you and one of them is the Fatigue! Every day I feel like I am pulling myself around just to move an inch. Everything seems to be such a struggle and then when night falls, I can't get good sleep and end up tossing and turning all night long. So my question is, is this part of an autoimmune system disorder (the fatigue that is) or is it caused by the medication or a bit of both? I do know that Fibromyalgia can cause extreme fatigue and it appears that so many of us struggle with this condition as well. I also realize that there is a vicious cycle happening when we are so sore during the day and ache all night long, we do not sleep properly and if we do not sleep properly then it affects our disease the next day making it worse but then because we are so sore the next day then we don't sleep properly at night again....do you see where I'm going here. It's a vicious cycle!! Even when I take my sleeping pills it still doesn't help that much. Who would have ever thought that fatigue could be so debilitating. I was also told once that when our body's are under such attack and in flares, the body takes such a beating from it all and becomes very fatigue so I guess a little of everything contributes to this craziness!! Well goodnight to you all I wish you a wonderful night's sleep my friends! Marilyn mhogg69@... Cyndi, Reading your letter made me think you were describing me. Fatigue is my biggest problem; I'm also unable to work. I have about the same sleep needs as you. I also have very little pain, for which I'm most thankful. I've had Stills for five years. Glad you found the group - I think you'll like it here.

Guest guest Posted August 9, 2002 Report Share Posted August 9, 2002 Dear Marilyn, I hope you have a wonderful and peaceful night with sweet dreams. I definitely relate and I agree with you I think it is a combo of everything. Since I had my Epidural I have been feeling hyperactive. Last night I finally went to bed at 5:00am and I was still tossing and turning. Since my back has gotten worse I have been even more fatigued than usual. Just getting up and getting ready for work in the morning at times is an exhausting task. I didn't mean to carry on. The fatigue can definitely be disabling. Love, jatw@...

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 My doctor put me on Lipitor once 3 years ago and that is fatique. I couldn't move a muscle. I was so sleepy and tired all the time that I thought I had lost every muscle in my body. Just the tought of having to stand up from a sitting position felt like I had to climb a mountain. 3 weeks on Lipitor and I thought I was going to die. Two weeks after stopping Lipitor, I felt my muscles were slowly coming back hence my energy back to normal. I walked 4 miles a day before taking the lipitor and I couldnt'[ walk 10 steps while on Lipitor. We have to get to know our medications. Not every med fits all in the same way. I was taking 5 mgs of lipitor every other day and I prefer to live a short life with some energy in my body than to live a prolonged life as a couch potato.

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 You appear to have a dangerous reaction to statins. Please discuss with your Dr immediately and suggest you want to try diet to manage the problem. What are the indications for using this drug? Strongly recommend you work on dietary management first if cholesterol is the problem DASH or Nutrisystems or Seattle Sutton would all be good ones to try. The cholesterol response to diet will reach its peak in as little as 2 weeks. Few Drs recommend or stress this as they have had so many fail doing this (without proper instruction and education). Recall that the Lyon Heart Study diet reduced second heart attacks by 50%. This is more than any drug trail has ever shown.

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 This does not work if your K is low. should have had a second verse- " But if your K is low it won't be smooth You may think you can do it but your muscles may quit. " You will cramp and twitch and draw and you hands will look like a claw. etc al la poetic license. Some one needs to do an Ode to K. Or an ode to PA even better.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Being concerned with my health is very new for me...but I am really trying.I hate to say this now,but I don't even know what you mean when you say " K is low... " I lived most of my life foolishly.Eating and drinking what I wanted,with no thought of any consequences.And,that has caught up with me.I must have a pretty good immune system,cause it's been over 10 years since I've had so much as a cold.I attribute this to drinking lots of water, orange juice and washing my hands often. Mainly,though,if I start to feel sick,I tell myself its in my head.It irks my Mama to no end if I tell her, " It is all in your head,just say,No I'm not getting sick. " Dave asked me to join this group months ago.He saw I was putting my life at risk.I am now trying to learn how to change my lifestyle.Since an early age I put salt on everything...watermelon,cucumbers,green apples.Just cover them with salt from the shaker.I spent many a summer day in the tomato patch with a salt shaker.Well,not the entire day.I had a friend who once said, " you don't eat watermelon.You eat the salt. " I know I have a long way to go.And,...he is 66 now.He doesn't move like he once did either.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 Hi All`~ I have a question, that someone on here might have some insight to... I have been taking the VCO, am diabetic (treat with meds) , take HGH (for only about a month)~Â take a multivitamin, Ester C and 2 baby aspirin a day~~ Yet I am incredibly tired...exhausted...... I read somewhere in the group post about those who are not vitamin deficient getting the most out of HGH..... I wondered if that is the case with myself.... I know without really knowing me, and certainly not being my physician....you cannot diagnose, however I wondered if anyone had any suggestions....??? Â Thanks~~ Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 Hi Lynn, Not personally familiar with HGH, EsterC, etc, but have been doing my best to use wholefoods all my adult life, - nevertheless have experienced the same as yourself in terms of exhaustion throughout this time. Just recently I have come to the realization that what I most likely have is ME, and at the same time have learnt from the website below that this is quite possibly simply a sleep disorder. If correct (and it seems to have proved so for many others) this would make a lot of sense to me as well. I am still in the process of submitting details for the free personal survey, the results of which should provide a degree of a tailored recovery program. I am not necessarily convinced that even if this understanding of ME is correct that it would nevertheless still provide a solution in my own particular case, however it definitely seems worth investigating and it would be interesting to know if any other forum members have experience of Teitelbaums' approach! http://www.endfatigue.com/about-dr-t/Index.html <http://www.endfatigue.com/about-dr-t/Index.html> Hope that helps some, Lynn, as another possibilty?

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 Lynn, if the HGH you are taking is not injected it won't do anything at all; research has shown it is simply digested like any other large protein. This is why there exists no HGH oral even by prescription. Further, a 4-oz bottle of the most powerful HGH oral you can buy over the counter represents only a single dose even if you injected it. Either of those reasons would be why you are not getting results. A specific amino acid stack on the other hand maxes out your HGH release to youthful levels with every dose and produces stellar results in 96 out of 100 people. I've been using SomaLife gHP for years and this is the product we've been discussing on this list: http://somalife.net/duncancrow/index2.html According to research aspirin users have a " poor prognosis " in the event of a haemorrhagic stroke, even if they've been taking the anticoagulant for only 3 months. There are better ways to thin the blood, for example BlockBuster All Clear. It is not an anticoagulant but it does reduce spontaneous coagulation (coagulopathy) with enzymes as opposed to drugs. Besides dropping the aspirin the best thing you can do is use undenatured whey and selenium. Not only does it promote the master antioxidant, this molecule is the strongest detoxifier precisely when you need to lift the biological load toxins produce, and it is directly used in the energy creation (ATP) cycle in your cells. Increasing this molecule should be a normal part of an anti-aging or metabolic increase campaign such as body-building. Most diabetic complications relate to low glutathione; some data from prwritten PubMed queries appears here: http://tinyurl.com/glutathione-references http://members.shaw.ca/duncancrow/glutathione-references.html Duncan > > Hi All`~ > I have a question, that someone on here might have some insight to...

Guest guest Posted January 3, 2009 Report Share Posted January 3, 2009 Lynn,  Used to get very tired, can't get up, too weak, and it goes away when i take a sheet of toasted nori (the sushi wrapper - paper thin seaweed). This works wonders for me. Take epsom- and sea-  salts baths too.  I recently learned i am deficient in iodine and very very low in magnesium and D3. I now supplement with magnesium citrate  and take iodoral for my iodine deficiency and D-3 capsules (6ooo IU).  So my advise to you is get your magnesium, iodine and D-3 checked.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
