What is MS Fatigue?
MS fatigue frequently is experienced as feeling tired and sapped before noon or (worse) soon after arising; it’s depressing to many. About three- quarters to nearly all with MS will at some time suffer it, and over half of those who do will claim it’s their worst problem. According to the 1998 report of the Multiple Sclerosis Council for clinical practice guidelines many ms-fatigue sufferers have lost their jobs because of it. The council experts define such fatigue as “a subjective lack of physical and/or mental energy that is perceived by individual or caregiver to interfere with usual and desired activities.
