Hello all,

Just a quick update. I know that chronic fatigue is common with lyme but i have been REALLY tired. Sometimes i'll drive to the store and not even get out of the car because I'm so tired so i'll just go home.

BUT I have been very busy. I started a master's degree program so that, plus working full time, I am busy from the time i wake up until i go to bed.

I also started exercising and mostly surfing which I haven't done much exercise in 3 years since i got diagnosed. So I've been passing out around 7:30 PM every day. and then sleeping until 6 am. Does that sound normal?

I don't have money right now to get bloodwork done but i do want to get it to check all my levels.

Thanks

Is the exercising making your fatigue worse? If so, don't do that!

you could try taking some ashwagandha, it helps regulate the thyroid and adrenals. You sound more towards hypothyroid (because of the fatigue) and ashwaganda does stimulate the thyroid a bit, and helps adrenals. it helped me a lot in the beginning of my treatment, when i was very tired all the time.

CoQ10 is also good for energy and it does not hurt to supplement when u feel tired.
Do you take any vitamins ? Especially B vitamins help getting energy

This one i think it contains well balanced ingredients:
