I've had this problem since I got back from Phoenix. I lay down to watch a movie and end up waking up like 8 hrs later. I'm sleeping like 15hrs a day! This isn't unusual during a flare but lately I don't know why. I'm just so tired all the time. I could go back to bed for the night right now.... I don't know where this extreme fatigue came from....Every time I sit down I fall asleep. i feel narcolpetic. Wth?
 
Perhaps you aren't absorbing all the nutrients your body needs? A B12 deficiency can make a person drowsy. I used to fall asleep on the bus and wake up back where I got on when I was having trouble with fatigue. :)
 
Im having exactly the same problem at the moment.. I just constantly feel absolutley shattered.... im going to bed earlier at say 10pm.. and sleeping right through till 8 am... and then just after dinner ill get sleepy and pop my head down for "5 mins" to wake up 4 hours later at tea time.... ill then be awake for a few hours then probably have another sleep before getting in bed at the same time again and nodding straight off.

its really starting to get me down at the moment because its stopping me doing anything because i just feel to tired and lethargic to do anything. Luckily work hasnt been busy so ive been off most of the week, but when i have been to work ive spent the whole day just wanting to go to bed.
 
Me too! Soooooooooooooooooooo tired... all I do is sleep...course I am flaring so that must be it but man I HAVE THINGS TO DO! So frustrating ...
 
I'm EXACTLY the same. So so tired, and so clumsy and lethargic - really bumbling around... I did have low B12 but it is normal now and I am still on my kness despite the fact that I work half the hours I did 6 months ago. I feel really useless...
