I have noticed that the days I am having a lot of pain/ spasms I am so exhausted I can barley get out of bed. I am just so tired and I think I could sleep all day. Anyone else experience this problem? Any advice?

I have also found dealing with pain can be tiring. I find I do best with IBS pain when I try to use techniques like distraction, relaxation exercises, deep calming breathing and imagery.

Pain/dealing with pain is typically exhausting. Doesn't really matter which pain it is. Sometimes I think can be a bit of a physical response as well. Since sleep is generally healing I think it may be adaptive to get tired when you are in pain.
