For the reasons you mentioned, I literally live in bed 20 hours a day because of exhaustion and fatigue, even if I sleep 2 days in a row I get more tired than before; it’s our little brain causing all the trouble

I have catnap but not a proper sleep, the constant physical pain is another monster in our lives

In short I do not manage it, it’s unmanageable illness, I go with the flow and use cbd oil from time to time as they are expensive

Physio and hydrotherapy is good too

Take care

Are you on medication? The side effects can be more exhaustion than we already have. I also use CBD oil and when the flare is bad I have an oil with THC in it, it’s a better pain killer and also helps me get a better sleep at night.

Where do you get cbd oil with thc please? I have used cbd oil for over a year & it has helped enormously (reduced pain meds by two-thirds) but could do with more on bad days.

I’m in New Zealand and buy it online locally. It’s not legal here yet, but my doctor knows I take it and I’m honestly much better on it than opiates.
