Sleeping too much

Hey all. It seems like lately for me that I keep getting new symptoms every few weeks. Now I seem to be sleeping too much. Yesterday I slept at least 17 hours and today I've slept for 14 already. I am very fatigued and I am PMSing (a few days away from that time of the month). I have never experienced fatigue like this before. I think it might be because my period is coming but I'm not so sure. Do any of you ladies get like this around your time of the month?

I have increased pain and fatigue during my period. Could fall asleep anywhere, so I have to keep moving. However, I don't have the luxury of sleeeping late as my kids are up and ready every morning, so I can't tell you if I can sleep that much, but I'd like to try.

Before my hysterectomy I would get like that. I would be so tired and hurt all over, and this was B4 getting fibro. After my hysterectomy, I got fibro and speaking of sleep, the last 2 days I've been in bed most of the day due to a bad flare. I've had fibro for 5 years now. I hadn't had a flare for awhile, and this one is kicking my butt!!! Oh, I was diagnosed with PMDD before my hysterectomy. I would be a depressed mess around my period. I would want to crawl under a rock and pull my hair out at the same time:). Take care.

Not only did I used to get like that before menopause - I haven't had a period in nearly two years and I STILL get like that once a month like clockwork. My husband will be happy to sign a statement to that effect LOL
I used to call the PMS days my "lock me up and toss some raw meat under the door" days. That was the moodiness that he still sees. The pain and extreme fatigue are still there too. Seems like once you get past all that, it should really be over, but I have everything still except the cramps and bleeding - and sometimes I still get cramps, but nothing like before.

I was like that for almost three years. I basically slept that time away and I can't even remember it.
So sad what this damn disease does to us.

I get more tired as well as feverish and headaches. Have you tried D-Ribose? I take that for energy and it works wonders! I have to get back on my supplements as I keep forgetting. I'm back to being sore and tired again...duh, think I'd learn but I haven't found anything to combat "fibro fog" yet! LOL
