Exhausted After Simple Tasks?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I get very exhausted doing simple tasks such as washing a few dishes or just putting away the laundry. It’s just started a few days ago, but I’ve had FM for 10 yrs now. I used to be able to do more simple chores but now I feel like I can’t even do the minimal tasks. Anyone else feeling this way?

Yes, for some reason my fatigue has been off the charts. I understand what you are talking about. I can't wait to get through whatever task I am doing so I can rest again. Just wish the resting would give us energy. Vicious Circle! Hugs.

I had a few months of being that fatigued but just thought it was my CFS or Fibro acting up. Its not as bad now but i really struggled. I felt better after my anti depressants were changed.

Yes, sometimes it takes me 2 days to clean a room. Just do what you can and make sure you get enough rest.

Stop taking the medication the GPs have been subscribing it's not medicine it's making you worse. Stopped mine 5 years ago and never felt better all you are is a cash cow to Pharmaceutical companies.

As I’ve gotten older it’s harder. We bought the iRobot Roomba, automatic vacuum and the one that washes floors. Use long handle wool duster. I have to pace all cleaning. My husband helps . Does his own laundry now , dishes, etc.
