Hi Everyone I was wondering can anyone give advice on fatigue i wake up some days with no energy at all feels hard work to even walk. I want to know what can help ease this or is there any medication i could take and if so how does it help and is there any side effects with them and also when i feel like this i get very bad muscle craps. Any advise would be great full thank you Take Care Dave
Hi Dave. Fatigue has always been my worst symptom The MSS and the MS Trust both do free booklets on it - you might find some good advice in them. (They are free to download and to order.) There are two main meds for MS-related fatigue: amantadine and modafinil. Unfortunately they don’t work for everyone, but they are definitely worth trying if fatigue is a problem. Amantadine didn’t work for me, but modafinil has honestly transformed my life - I don’t even need to nap most days any more! Getting the prescription will depend on how helpful your GP and / or neuro is though. Fingers crossed
