it is very hard to describe. fatigue is not the same as being sleepy. i've even started differentiating between muscle weakness and fatigue. today it sort of feels like when you're coming down with the flu. my body feels warm, slow and heavy. the smallest activity, like typing this, will wear me out. this feeling has kept me home from work. i've had to cancel plans to see friends. in fact, now i give the disclaimer, "i'm planning to come, but if i wake up that morning feeling fatigued, i'll have to stay at home."
fatigue is one of the more manageable symptoms though. just rest. it is most frustrating if you have an active mind. there are so many things you'd like to do, but you don't have the energy to do them.
this disease is so frustrating!

i've had enough! though, 'enough' keeps growing.
