Where Did My Energy GO?
The lupus had me totally wore out. I am so lacking in energy, wheeling across the floor makes me feel like crap. I hate what this illness has done to my body. I want to do so many things. Well lupus has a mind of its own. Just using the computer wears me out. It zaps what energy I do have out of me. I have tried to eat just about anything to boost my energy level. I’ve tried chocolate, caffeine, protein and carbs. It does not help at all. I will be glad when this flare passes. I am grateful to be able to type this tonight, but man this is so tiresome. I feel more like I’ve walked a marathon then wheeled across the room just to type this up. I pray God will release the devil in me and many others called lupus. It sure does suck. I feel like every breath has been taken away from me. I don’t know why this illness does this to me. I want a few good days. I am really hating winter and the transition to spring. God give me strength.

Chronic chick, I had my first TIA at the tender age of 22. Didn’t know that I had Lupus then. Things just kept happening and no one connected the dots. Well, I’m full on now and just like you I have no energy! I’m in pain! It’s a cloudy day here in NJ and you know what that means! I wanted to let you know about this medication that I take called Provigil 200mg. When I take it, it gives me engery. It’s at the pharmacy now, awaiting approval unfortunately.
Hang in there and take it easy. You will grieve the loss of your former life, many times without warning. It’s normal. I’m here if you need me. Take care.

I pray for you my dear. I hope God will give you enough strength to carry on, just hang on there and remember that these too shall pass. Summer is fast approaching here in our country and it is the dreadful season that always terrifies me. God bless you.
