What is your night time sleep quality like? If you sleep 10 hours and still feel tired, ask your doctor about an overnight sleep test which measures O2 sats while you sleep, and ALSO the sleep phases e.g. non-REM and REM. Night sats and day sats can differ a lot, and affect your sleep quality. My day sats are great and FEV1 around 70, but my dipping night time sats kept my body from going into all the sleep phases. I feel a million times better sleeping with 02 now. I can actually make it through a day without feeling like a zombie by mid afternoon.Good luck , let us know if you solve your tired-mystery

there are many reasons with CF why we feel weak and tired. Our body is always working for oxygen, and fighting any infections and at night when we sleep our oxygen lowers, and it casues our hearts to work harder and I am sure it makes it hard to sleep even if you dont realize it.

thanks for all the replies so far,
well i go to the doc next week so i'm bringing it up. maybe i will get my sugars tested. i've had it done before and nothing showed up but you never know.
as far as depression causing it, yeah i think thats a possibility for part of it. i know i've been depressed for a while and yesterday i made an appt to do something about it.
i get pretty good sleep-i'm fortunate to have a chill 2 yr old so i'm getting 8-8 hours of sleep at night and i don't snore, ect..my hubby would def let me know. i do wake up occasionally, and its a mental thing. mind racing..
basically i think my circuits are tired.
gotta have them rewired.
the thing that baffles me is body aches along with it. its one thing to be tired, but to have aches? its very frustrating.
yesterday i drank a cup of wicked winter blend coffee-really strong stuff. plus some high protein trail mix. i had tons of energy after that!
