chronic fatigue
 

Does anyone know anything about being tired all the time? I have been diagnosed with a type of periferal neuropathyand I feel exhausted all the time. It is very difficult for me to walk downstairs because my legs are so weak. :confused:

Well, peripheral neuropathy--
 

--can certainly lead to fatigue, especially if motor neurons are involved; it just takes that much more effort to overcome the scrambled nerve signalling and make the muscles do anything.

Welcome to the boards--and specifically, if you want to come visit the neuropathy section here (lot of nice people and expertise) just jump to this link:

Hi Credo...welcome to NeuroTalk. Here is the link to the PN forum.

I'm sure you've find support from the nice members there.

Welcome credo :)

I have PN, but there isn't anything that can be done about my type due to hereditary illness, so I rarely post in the PN forum. :o

It took a long time, but I just let strangers laugh at the way I walk. I let them laugh at my pain. Have no choice there either because I can no longer kick their butts. :D

I'm sure you'll find some real gems in the PN forum, even though they walk kinda funny. :D

Hi Credo and welcome. You'll find everyone here very caring and supportive (and some just plain goofy). :)

Feeling exhausted all the time just plain sucks, no matter what the reason.
