Hi everyone, I’m new here to this website and I am hoping to find some insight and understanding about AS. I was diagnosed a year ago and have been trying to understand and determine if all of the exhaustion and pain I feel is from it. I have lofty ambitions of  things I want to do ( like I did when I was in my 40’s) but find that when I do try do to things I pay dearly for it. I’m finding that even doing normal everyday tasks can overwhelm me before I know it and I can’t continue because I’m wiped out and in a lot of pain.  Is this a normal part of the disease? Any insights would welcomed and appreciated. Thanks

Hello everyone,

How are you today? I thought I would revive this discussion, since fatigue is one of the most common symptoms of AS! emoticon cute

So, how do you cope with the fatigue? Do you have any tips or advice? Have you modified your daily routine or schedule around your fatigue?

@  that’s interesting! I may look into that. I take special vitamins only available online that really help me. They have made it so I can work and care for my family again!! I’ve tried to substitute with other supplements with similar ingredients without any success. I went back to these exclusive vitamins that work and been doing better again! It’s the most amazing thing I’ve come across. That device sounds like it would do wonders for me.
