As Winnie the Pooh would say, “Oh Bother!”
Went to see the Internist Dr. today.
Good news first. I have not gained any weight! I have not lost any weight. I am staying the same on that aspect. My Thyroid is peachy. My blood work looks great. All that checked out great!
But that does not explain the fatigue. That deep, deep fatigue.
So, hang onto your hats. Here is what he thinks is happening.
There is this thing in your brain, we will call it a “switch.” This switch clicks off at night time so you can sleep and back on in the morning so you wake up. My switch is not working. It is stuck in the “Off” position. Lovely.
That means medication. Rats. I do not like taking medication. He warned me that this is “expensive stuff” and gave me a coupon to help cut the cost of the medication. I am almost afraid to go to the pharmacy!
This evening, after my husband finishes work, we will go to the pharmacy and fill it and find out what the Dr. thinks expensive really is 🙂
I need to do something. I have lost two days of training. That is only two days but two days X two days adds up fast to a week or two!
Oh Bother!
