Always run down with MGUS

Deb I always attribute being tired to my rapidly advancing (*@#+!) age.
I guess it doesn’t occur to me that it might be related to the MGUS but it certainly might be.
Some days I have good energy and others, I suggest popcorn and Chardonnay for dinner to avoid making a cooking mess.
I’ve frequently been grateful that MGUS was diagnosed almost at the end of my career. I had planned retirement @ 70 and only had to work a few more months after diagnosis. On those days when my energy is low I catch up on my reading and even nap. In short, if I can pay attention to what my body is telling me, I can adjust my settings and feel better.
I hope you can adjust your sails and feel better too.
Hugs.

@pmm…Chardonnay and popcorn for dinner? Gurl, save me a place. I’ll be right over!! 😅

I think my fatigue is medication and age, even though I apparently have been diagnosed as having MGUS. I am due for lab work Friday and office visit the following Week. So far, nothing terribly dyramatic, but at 92 I don't think anyone is going to get anxious or super fast reacting.
New Medication for Trigeminal Neuralgia, only one a day, but with the high blood pressure meds, and diuretics, I am ready for a nap by 3, and another one around 8 at night and then sleep 7 hours at night. I mansge to stay awake for meals, and a couple of hours on the computer.
LIFE IS TOUGH. HA! HA!
