Sleep issues

[DENNISAMERICA]

Hi,I have noticed i feel extremely tired all the time and want to sleep alot with terrible fatigue.. When i wake up my body and pillow are very hot but no fever and my pft is low until after an hour of hacking and hacking up clear mucus and nasal clear mucus then my pft goes back up some,,, i do have copd to the mild/moderate stage... is this normal for copd?

I am always tired too, I think it goes hand in hand with lung disease. I think a lower lung function first thing in a morning is quite usual. Respiration is much more shallow during the night and mucus builds up then too. Once that is cleared in a morning and breathing becomes easier it follows that lung function improves to some extent.

Can't explain that I'm afraid

I have bronchiectasis and tend to fall asleep in the daytime. I think it goes with the territory.

Have you been assessed for sleep apnoea?

I have ILD and feel so tired it's like all of a sudden my energy runs out and I have to lay down sleep for an hour then it's like I'm recharged thus happens at least 3 times a day and when I retire to bed I sleep right through like a log I've had blood tests ect but they tell me it's just par for the course with lung disease and have to put up with it

I too suffer from copd fatigue. I think we just have to learn to plan our time remembering that energy is a precious resource. I've just ordered a new, lighter weight, duvet as we were too hot. I don't know if it's a lung disease 'thing'.
