How does SBC effect your life?

I am a very strong & positive person & i try very hard to do as much as i did before diagnosis, The fatigue gets to me more than anything & some days i can sleep for 14 hours & others i don’t even have a nap. i have a 13yr old daughter & 3 horses so doing nothing is not an option. i’m very lucky to have a fabulous supportive husband who is happy to do weekly shopping, cooking & other chores. unfortunately he too is not in the best of health so we struggle between us to give our daughter as much as we can x
