PedsRN replied to bluefrango's discussion 'Help with fatigue?'"I would also get your Vit D checked. A lot of people with D have VitD deficiency. I was having the same problems and found my Vit D to be seriously low. Now I am on supplements and really notice the difference. I still have some day like your…"
Brian (bsc) replied to bluefrango's discussion 'Help with fatigue?'"Well, I can tell you one thing that will give you fatigue. Sleep apnea. And apparently diabetes and sleep apnea are associated. But anybody can have it. And it isn't just about weight, sometimes it is just the genetics of your throat, tongue…"
Ginger9708 replied to bluefrango's discussion 'Help with fatigue?'"Yes like above posters said the thyroid also, if anyone should know that would be me as i have been on meds for 10 years now and totally forgot to mention that.

bluefrango posted a discussionHelp with fatigue?
Has anyone found something to help with fatigue? I've had T1D for 14 years now,and I seem to consistently have a few days every month or so where my energy bottoms out. I'll need 12 hours of sleep to function, and my brain will still feel asleep all day. It's not that frequent, but is getting more annoying with my work schedule.Besides keeping your A1C down, does anyone have any advise for something they've found to help?See More

The folks of the Behavioral Diabetes Institute sent me this information about a Luncheon Honoring Women with Type One Diabetes, taking place close to San Diego, Oct. 10. Thought I'd pass it along, in case you are interested.

- Thank you very much for taking the time to reply to my questions on the TYpe 1 forum. They were very helpful and I shared some of the results with my classmates in my group. I also gave them the link to the entire survey.
Thank you again!
