    Exhaustion

    Bulbar onset diagnosed in 3/23. No voice, no eating by mouth. Legs getting weak. Arms & hands ok. Breathing is ok. Is anyone else exhausted? Just taking a shower and getting dressed is exhausting. I sleep about 9 hours at night and nap 2-3 hours. I don’t leave the house. I just sit.
