So you can take any symptoms from any of the problems and I could
have them. With me I have a few that are always there and then a
lot that come and go. I never know how I will feel tomorrow.
So trying to plan anything has become moot. Just plan it and how
ever I feel I just have to deal with it.
The diabetes has me up 2 or 3 times a night for the bathroom. I
never get a good nights rest, which adds greatly to the fatigue.
I have Hot flashes and PROFUSE night sweats! Soak the bed, blankets
and pillow!
Basically you just feel like you have the life sucked out of your
body.
My medications make the numbers look right but they don't make me
feel right.

This developed over the years as intermittant problems. But never
any in combination bad enough to hold me back.
This is such a dramatic change from just 5 years ago. I am a
Journeyman Boilermaker / welder by trade. I was one of the high
steel men that would climb and walk the I-beams building power
plants etc. I could easily lift and carry 100 lbs up stairs.

Now I am a shadow of what I used to be.
I become Short of breath from walking at a normal pace under 100
yards. Usually have to stop before I can go on, or walk much
slower.

I have come to accept this as the way my life will be, and that was
the hardest thing about this syndrome.
