I went to the doctor yesterday for a physical and because I have been having some odd symptoms. He asked what I was there for an I told him an overall tune-up and because "I feel weird". That is the only way I can describe how I have been feeling these days.
I have lost a total of 35 pounds so I should be feeling better. Instead, I am constantly fatigued. Not just tired but a bone weary exhaustion that no amount of sleep can help. I am also very very irritable. Crabby, cranky, bitch, whatever you want to call it. I know I am being short and angry with my family but it's almost like I can't help it. I am also having some weird dry patches of skin on my scalp and hair loss but honestly, I was attributing that to the fact that I changed shampoos. Maybe it's related to my other symptoms? The last symptom I am having is fogginess. I feel like I can't remember things and I am confused. Again, that is probably related to the fatigue.
The doctor is checking a few things like my thyroid levels as well as my iron and other blood work. I have always been borderline anemic so it wouldn't surprise me if my iron is low. I would also not be surprised if I have an issue with my thyroid.
Either way, whatever is wrong (if anything) is hopefully easily corrected. If not, I can always add in some exercise to start helping with the fatigue. I also need to start taking a multi-vitamin.
That's about it in regards to my health. I need to do a randoms post soon because I have so much that I have been doing these days. But you know what? I am so tired. I have no energy to do another post right now. Maybe in a few days.
