MG fatigue – it’s full body depletion
MG fatigue and low energy are one of the hardest parts for me; even during periods when other symptoms are controlled, the feeling of being drained lingers…
What do you do on the days it really hits – what actually helps?

The only thing that helps for me is taking several rests/naps throughout the day. I’m long ago retired (78 yrs old) so finding the time for that is not a problem. Sometimes I set my phone timer for 15 or 20 minutes and just lay down for that time, and other times I take longer rests with real sleep. Every day I take a 40-minute nap after my mid-day meal and it really helps.

I also am 78 and do exactly the same thing! Yesterday my eyes were really burning so I layed down and closed them for 20 minutes and the burning went away! Sometimes, my entire body feels like it is throbbing and a 45 minute rest changes everything!
