Need some advise

So for the past 6 months I’ve been feeling so so tired. The feeling like I haven’t even slept tired! I get aching muscles, feel jaded and get shaky hands. I’ve had blood tests and checked my sugar levels and they’re all fine. I was wondering if any of you ladies suffer with this?

Iv'e experienced this along with palpitations, I have polyistic ovaries and I am waiting for investigation surgery to see if I have endometriosis, the tiredness is unreal, doesn't matter how long I sleep I'm always tired!

Oh god that’s not good. Yeah I know right, I can sleep for 12 hours straight and I’m still so tired I’ve tried having less sleep but that just makes me more tired! I’m so sick of it, and I don’t want to overload with caffeine because that’s not good for endometriosis

I found that drinking hot milk before bed makes me sleep better and I'm trying to set a alarm for the same time every morning and no matter how tired I am, I get up and push through and I think it's helping me a little bit. but I feel for you, being tired constantly is horrible!

I’m great for sleeping I don’t have broken nights sleep it’s just during the day I can’t even keep my eyes open and then doctors are crap they just say it’s cfs.

Try valerian tea. Also maybe Epsom salt with lavender bath before bed. With symptoms of endo it’s very difficult to relax and get proper rest. I find these 2 things help me to have a proper rest and my muscles don’t feel so achy the next day. Hope this helps.
