Fatigue

My husband has bronchiectasis and stays fatigued most of the time. He continually pushes himself to do things. He can go from fatigue one minute to crashing the next. Is this normal?

    I have 4 lung diseases amongst them bronchietasis, the fatigue is terrible but like your husband

    I push myself to try and stay as fit as possible. Live in mini mountains so everything outside the house

    is hard work, I crash often the get up and go has got up and gone.

    Is it normal, for us? I think it is, though wish it wasn't.

    Hi Karen

    This i see as totally normal to be fatigue, one minute you put all energy into something, next it kicks in with severe fatigue. Its seems like ppl with illnesses tend to try and get on with it, but then suddenly when unexpected creeps in with fatigue etc.
