Year 2 of mavenclad

The fatigue has set in now. It is going to be harder to deal with this time. My boyfriend is not hear at all right now his priority is helping to care for his 93 year old mother that has Parkinson and alzheimers and back in August was diagnosed with cancer. My son that was living with me moved away to Oregon and just got married. I am handling it OK so far. I didn't really realize how much I counted on them to help around the house. I am done doing any new projects except for my crocheting. I will talk to my pastor if I get feeling like I can't do things. We have a wonderful youth group that just love to jump in and help out. Rue is getting to where she doesn't need to go out as often and just loves to cuddle up with me. You all take care and stay safe.

Sorry about the fatigue, it can be really hard. I haven't had to deal with it at all since I started Ocrevus but I sure remember it before, especially when I was first diagnosed. Just resign to the fact that not everything has to get done at once. If you don't feel like doing anything, then don't, rest instead. It's ok. How long does the fatigue last after you take your Mavenclad rounds?

By month 5 after finishing year 1 I got my energy back and the fatigue was not bad like it is now. I have been dealing with this disease since 1993 and it took me a while but I figured out only do what is most important. Thank you for your insight

Do rest up, Turtlepie

Too bad your fur babies cannot cook, clean, vacuum for you, or could they?

They look adorable :-D

I will rest as much as possible all I have been doing these last 4 days is crocheting walking rue and that's about it I have gone to the store twice. I wish that they could do all of that would be nice
