This is probably going to sound weird, but do you have any digestive problems?

What does your sleep look like?

Do you have any muscle pain even when not overusing them?

Last, but not least, how is your caffeine intake?

I have crohns, and had 18" of colon removed shortly after it was discovered.

My neck hurts pretty much all the time.

I try to limit caffeine.

I have apnea and use a CPAP machine.

I'll be honest I don't know much about Crohns so double check any advice I give you.

It good that you are watching you caffeine intake. What I would suggest you try is a good electrolyte supplement with focus on magnesium, best would be to go to pharmacy and have them recommend what would be best.

I know 2 people who had sleep apnea, they were overweight, and it went away when they lost weight, and supplementing magnesium helped them get better sleep.

Here is some good info about it: https://www.naturalgrocers.com/health-hotline-article/5-mind-blowing-benefits-magnesium

It helped me with my insomnia, and is good for stress, but it's not a magic pill.

You will still need to give yourself time to recover from all that stress, try to get plenty of sleep.

Thanks friend. I did start a magnesium supplement, but realized after your question that I'd been forgetting it over the past few weeks. I do need to lose weight -I got out of a good routine when my father died years ago, and have indeed joined the fat fuck ranks.
