Fatigue no insomnia: Most likely no! fatigue is a common symptom in a large number of medical and psychological disorders, including many rheumatologic illnesses .However, most syndromes of fatigue seem to depend on both peripheral and central mechanisms. Negative affect and pain, are some of the most powerful predictors for fatigue. Sleep problems, including insomnia, seem to be less important for fatigue.
