2016, Journal of Pain and Symptom ManagementCitation Excerpt :The findings in this category relate to the pathway of the fatigue in terms of presence, variation in fatigue over time, and onset. In 25 studies, fatigue was described as being ever present, with participants constantly aware of the presence of fatigue and the impact on daily life:13,14,17,20,23,25,30,36–38,40,41,45–47,51,53,57,58,60,61,63,67 Even breathing seems to drain all my energy.16
Exploring the experience of fatigue in people with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease
2012, Neuromuscular DisordersCitation Excerpt :The impact of fatigue went beyond physical, activity and participation limitations, but also emotional responses to living with these limitations. The descriptions of fatigue and the experiences described are strikingly similar to those reported in studies of other neurological disorders such as stroke and multiple sclerosis (MS) [9–13]. Similar words were used to portray the phenomenon with descriptions of physical failure and fatigue as a paralysing force with bodily descriptors of heaviness and dragging [9,11].
