CFIDS, FM, and Menstrual Cycles – YUCK!

1 Comment

If there are some men reading this blog, sorry about this topic but I feel it is necessary to talk about, so bear with me!

Has anyone else with CFIDS and/or FM notice that since you have been ill your menstrual cycle symptoms are worse?  Mine definitely are!  Yesterday I could not function hardly at all!  I was laid up most of the day.

For me the fatigue is just unbearable and I am unable to do anything!  Today I feel a little better but I am still very lethargic.  I remember I used to have to take off a day or so every month when I was still working because my symptoms were so severe.
