Fatigue

Most MSers have it. What can we do about it? MSIF reports on three fatigue studies.

The first study looks at the relationship of fatigue with sleep disturbances. Sleep disturbance is often caused by treatable symptoms. Sleep better at night and you’ll have enough energy to get through the day? Maybe.

The second study suggests fatigue is simply biological and therefore possibly treatable with hormones.

The third study evaluates the screening tools for the impact of fatigue on an MSer’s daily life.

I am just a regular MSer with no special training in reading research study papers. Some of the papers make sense, but I don't get much out of others. I still read them. These summaries tell me progress is being made in the search for answers to lighten our daily burden.
