I was just diagnosed with this. Does anyone else have this?

    No, what is it?

    NVM. Sometimes I feel like I do... but alas, no. Is there any way to stop you being so tired all the time?

    Only with meds. There is not known cause and no cure. It effects my whole life and starts in preteen ages. Looking back I could tell that I had it then. The tiredness that people who don't have this is completely from the tiredness that I feel.

    I have IH too! I wasn't diagnosed until last December, but we can trace the symptoms for me all the way back to when I was at least a toddler. We need to make a group on here for IH!
