Hi! I'm just curious if anyone else experiences daytime sleepiness even after full night sleep. I went to sleep specialist recommended by my neurologist. Anyone with movement disorder in sleep too???

Absolutely, one of the main symptoms for me personally, Fatigue +++++++++
Ironically the only thing that seems to help a bit is to exercise, not hard impact etc. I use Tai Chi and exercises called Qi Gong. Many can be done in the chair if needed.
One other thing I would advise is to try not to sleep too much during the day it realllllyyyy messes with productive night sleep. I do succumb a few times a week when the fatigue is just too overwhelming and would be counterproductive not to.
Have you had sleep studies done or would you possibly be a heavy snore.? In any case really hard to deal with. People think I am a drunk walking down the street, makes thinking straight very difficult.
Try your best to focus on the good things and pace yourself.
Best wishes

See Hippy Daisy post. Very common with FND
Yes and yes, but take it as a normal day

We just posted a link to fndhope.org with information regarding a sleep study and FND. Please consider if it is right for you.

I am tired all the time, no matter how much I slept the night before. Before PSP I slept 5 to 6 hours a night and my energy level was very high. I worked full time as a registered nurse, and many days I needed to stay hours after I was supposed to leave and rarely was I ever tired as I am now. I so enjoyed using my brain at work, but now I sometimes do not recall my own name! Good luck with your endeavor. Mary B
i get the same but i've put it down to a mixture of thing my depression and caring for my partner, also due to having a hiatus hernia that sometime act up and wakes me up.
So if i feel to tired during the day i have an afternoon nap which helps in away but sometime makes getting to sleep at night worse.
Read post on sleep studies project. Get involved and as I said to others on the forum, ASK FOR A FULL SLEEP STUDY WITH HEAD ELECTRODES AND BREATHING MEASRED AND RECORDED WHILE U SLEEP.
I am convinced that there is a link of some manner
Good luck
i struggle to sleep, feel tired all the time as i dont get no where near enough hours, sadly i have to deal with this alone, my doctor has refused to refer me, ( i have waited 6 weeks for a call back) so not bothered anymore, hope you feel better ish soon xxx
