@nohrt4me I’m only taking a baby aspirin a day for my ET and I am generally a very active person. My fatigue is ridiculous however and becoming life altering. I’m in a semi angry phase because I have lots of things I want to do and no energy to do them. It’s frustrating to me.

@sdcgcarroll Yep. I get it. I was high energy and looked forward to a fulfilling retirement of volunteering and travel. But that's not how it has worked out. I'm 72 now and I try to accept the limitations and find purpose within them. Otherwise I just get irritable and become a trial to myself and others.

PS You asked about trials, and this site prob has the most up to date info on that:
