Guest guest Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Janet I also have problem with fatigue. I just talked with my doctor about it last week. She wants me to be tested for sleep apnea. I do have sleeping pills to use as needed. She feels maybe I am not getting a complete nights sleep. I usually take nap most afternoons. in WI jan <smokey61080@...> wrote: > > Good morning just need to ask does anyone else have a feeling of being > tired all the time, I > Wrong With Me? and how do I fix it?
