Doctors today

CantWait wrote: The last 6 months, maybe even more I've been really tired, and getting sick all the time (sterp throat, colds etc..)....well the last couple weeks I don't even want to get out of bed. I can get 6 hours sleep, or 12 hours sleep, it doesn't matter, I'm still tired. So I went to the doctors today, and now I have a bunch of blood work to get done. I kinda hope something comes up because quite frankly, I'm tired of being tired and it's really starting to affect me. I'm going to bed earlier which isn't fair to either of the kids because then they have to go to bed, or it means that Robbie can't go out. I don't get out of bed till almost noon, except to get the kids snacks or breakfast...how horrible is that. Anyway hopefully I find out what's wrong soon.

amynicole21 replied: I hope they find something. Could it be possibly depression?

CantWait replied:
That's it, just sick all the time, and really tired.

CantWait replied:
I do suffer from it, but I don't believe this is what's causing my sleepiness. I remember wanting to stay in bed before, but was just a want to stay there and not do anything, this is more like a need. My doctor did bring it up to make sure that things were ok, but she didn't seem to concerned that my depression was the reason for this.

C&K*s Mommie replied: I hope it is something as simple as low iron, and not anything more serious than that!

Hillbilly Housewife replied: heh heh... are you two fixed?



ETA: that was a joke, btw....

I hope nothing too serious comes up....

kimberley replied: yuck. hope its nothing serious. keep us posted.

ammommy replied: If they didn't check your B12 levels and nothing else comes up, have them check that. It turns out that my B12 is naturally extremely low (and I had the same symptoms as you). Now I take shots and I'm back to normal unless I miss a shot.

Sarah&Mackenzie replied: Well I hope that you find out what is wrong so that the docs can make it right. Hope you start feeling better soon!!

CantWait replied:
Nope that was funny. Seriously though I don't think it could be that. We were protected everytime during his 3 weeks at home, and this has been going on for months, it's just gotten worse the last couple weeks.
