Returning to this most vicious manifestation of PPS (in my case add
MS) there are days that I experience both mental and physical
fatigue. Picking up a pencil is something that requires double effort,
sometimes is hard to distinguish which is which, last time I visited
the neurologist he pointed out this manifestantion(s).
My physical fatigue is so great that sometimes just the act of
opening my eyes is an effort filled with pain.
When the mental fatigue hits home my power of concentration is
minimal tending to forget simple tasks and is almost impossible for
me to read, write, watch tv and feel like just closing my eyes and
stay like that the rest of the day.
The neurologist said something once and I got kind of mad but, later,
when I reconsidered the real meaning of his words had no other choice
but accept his words as filled with knowledge, "...you abused your
body for 60 years trying to act normal just like every other kid in
the block or school - consider that you actually destroyed your
muscles walking straight and fast, playing ball, power-walking...now
is time to pay, PPS and MS are UNFORGIVING.
Wishing all well
Luis
