Hi all Merry Christmas to everyone. I am slowly coming out of a relapse I am in week 5 at the moment. Yesterday I felt great, I did still take it easy. Today I feel so rough, my neck is really stiff and I feel really blurgh. I did not sleep as well as I normally do last night due to the awful wind. Could the lack of sleep last night really make me feel so awful or is the normal for a relapse? Thanks for any advice as I am feeling quite down. xxx
Hi My current relapse is 8 mths and still going, only slight symptoms left now but yes during that time I have ups and downs. One day feeling great thinking it’s all past and then bang it’s back again. Lack of sleep/ stress etc can play it up , just try and relax and rest as all the wonderful people told me on here ,it takes time Have a nice Christmas Gray
Hello Hopefull,
I am the same! I hardly slept from the wind and feel like absolute shiz today. I imagine lack of sleep makes pretty much anything worse, ms or otherwise.
I am on week 8 of this ‘attack’. My neck hurts alot aswell, especially when I bend it forward. I hope it improves soon for you.

Hi Hopefull,
Recovery from a relapse is not a straight line. It may feel like two steps forward and one step backwards, at times.
It could be related to the lack of sleep, but it might just be one of those things. I don’t always know why I felt worse on a particular day. Sometimes it’s obvious, but other times, I’ve no idea what set it off, and blame it on the weather.
It’s not abnormal, either way.
Hope you feel better, and it doesn’t spoil Christmas too much.
Tina
