If you are living with Parkinson’s disease, you might often feel run-down, out of energy, or even a bone-deep kind of tired that isn’t relieved with rest. Those feelings of intense tiredness are known as fatigue — a symptom that affects at least 50 percent of those with Parkinson’s.

Many MyParkinsonsTeam members experience fatigue. “I didn’t know it was caused by Parkinson’s disease. I just thought I was getting lazy,” said one self-proclaimed chronic napper.

“I’m getting a better understanding of fatigue reading other Parkinson’s disease patients’ stories and knowing I’m more ‘normal’ than I thought,” wrote another member, relieved.
