Re: Ugh..the fatigue !!!

I wish I had an answer. It can be pretty bad and I hate that heavy legs and arms feeling. All I do is rest as much as I can when that hits. Maybe someone else will have a better solution.

Re: They make fun of me

I say remove yourself from the situation. Negative words are not good for you. It fuels the fire. Stay away from negative people and surround yourself with positive ones.
