I got a short walk in earlier today at work, then a very short one later but I feel like I've been hit by a bus.

Thank you 24 hour friends

Day 20
The true fatigue lasted, for me, maybe a month or so; it was followed, though, by lethargy which lasted a good six months before it slowly began to lift. Everyone is different; it doesn't take everyone that long.

Your body is recovering, dear RBJ, and healing; those processes need energy - a lot of energy; my feeling is that our bodies deliberately slow us down in order to heal and recover. Listen to your body; it knows what it is doing. Rest; eat well; get plenty of fresh air; drink plenty of water - heal and recover; it's part of the miracle, part of the magic.
