I’m getting super frustrated as I’m always tired, I never want todo anything because I’m always feeling tired and lack of energy! What’s a quick fix? I’m trying that Metatone tonic at the moment, any advice is really helpful 😭😭

oh babe. I'm experiencing the same thing, so you're not alone!

Would love to learn some tips too. Have you had difficulty sleeping?

Hi Marie, yeah, I tend to wake up in the middle of the night... just so frustrating, I just feel so emotional today 😩

I'm so sorry to hear that! Just know you're not alone. I haven't been able to get one good night's sleep in a year..which makes me wonder if it's the endometriosis? The mirena coil? Or the tramadol I'm taking. Because my sleep wasn't like this prior to all of this.

Go and see tour gp about this and see what s/he can do. Or speak about it to your endometriosis doctor. I'm going to do the same next week at my appointment.

Good luck and keep me updated! 🤗🤗

I feel the same lovely. Look up pacing techniques online for activities and it should help when feeling in pain & fatigued :)

I have the same issue, i think most of us do. But no one really has the answer, i wish we did. At least you know youre not alone. I recently put up a post because of the same thing and everyone said about getting levels checked, taking good quality vitamins, resting when you need to and eating properly. Drinking enough water helps and i take protein shakes too which also helps.

Checking levels? Could you elaborate please? Xx

Your vitamin, mineral, hormone, thyroid and iron levels. The gp does it through blood tests.

Really feel for you! I have the same problem. What I have found helped a little bit was changing my diet I've pretty much gone vegan and eating lot's of fresh green veggies. I still have my cheat days where I allow myself to eat dairy foods now and again as a treat. Hope you feel better soon. Xx
