Guest guest Posted April 6, 2003 Report Share Posted April 6, 2003 Shelia, Fatigue. Yes. Fatigue is something that has become ever present. I have little reserves, and even when I don't do much, other than just hang out at the house, I will get hit with a wave intense enough that I just fall asleep where I am even if it is in front of the computer. *smile* I am not certain the cause: is it stress? is it malnutrition? (I don't have malabsorption yet that has been diagnosed at any rate). Is it something directly a result of the pancreas? Is it the pain meds? I am guessing in my case it is all of the above. Fatigue can be a serious overlooked symptom though. It can point to lots of serious problems. Have you had your blood sugar tested? If you have problems with the exocrine pancreas then you might have problems with the endocrine pancreas. My advice is to keep sharing your exhaustion with your doctor and ask him to serious consider this. Also do your best to get plenty of rest, plenty of water, maybe supplement your diet with an antioxidant/multivitamin, and find a way to unwind from the stress. And if you find what helps you deal with the stress, please share that with us! I need help there! Thanks, and better health to you! Bert --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
