Fatigue

The issue I hear the most from people with neuropathy is that fatigue can be the hardest.  Most of us have found ways to deal with the pain - burning, itching, etc.  But fatigue is bad because it takes from us the handling of our daily lives.  I have rare days were I can do many things and too often I then do too much and the fatigue when it comes back is very bad.  It is hard to explain to those who do not have this issue how wearing it is to move 5 feet and feel worn out.  Things still have to be done and for me it is the toughest part.  Before neuropathy started for me I was going alot.  I could do all that needed to be done in my house in a day.  Now I have to plan it out and it seems that I constantly have something to do.  It is very demoralizing to never feel like your jobs are completed.  I am one of those people who likes to check off  tasks and that just does not really happen anymore.  I try to let things go but some days even the little things bother me, not so much anyone else in my house so I guess if it does not bother them it should not get to me.  I hate to think if I am this tired now how I will feel when I am really old!  Rest, rest, rest is the mantra I guess.
