Has anyone else ever woken up feeling like this?

[CymbidiumHybrid]

I've woken up this morning and my arms and legs feel like dead weights and I feel that every single shred of energy has been sucked out of me.

Now I've had tea and toast I feel even MORE tired etc.

I don't feel ill in any way shape or form, just drained, all I want to do is lie on the sofa and snooze/read/watch crappy tele etc.

Dh is trying to persuade me to go out for a couple of hours etc as I've not been out at all for the last couple of weeks due to illness. I'll obviously have to take dc and will spend the afternoon keeping an eye on them.

Has anyone else felt like this? Really don't know what to do, on one hand it would be lovely to see friends, but, on the other hand I don't know if I have enough energy to wash my hair and put my slap on

post viral fatigue? I'm pretty sure i'm not making that up - you say you've been ill, what's been the matter?

I've woken up feeling like this before. Have a shower and see how you feel.. fresh air will make you feel better, but if you feel really crap then stay home.

You sound like I did when I was anaemic.

I would say post viral fatigue too.

I've had a sniffle/cold and bad chest for a few weeks on and off.

I don't feel ill or the need to take tablets or anything.
