I promised Janice (days ago) that I would blog about how I am doing lately so here we go.
A bit of background: I was feeling pretty crappy all the time - basically. Tired, nausea, grumpy - lots, couldn't eat and putting on weight - go figure!! etc etc. (and no I am not pregnant!)
I went to the doctor who sent me for blood tests and an ultrasound on my throat and liver. He also gave me medication for thyroid problems cause that was where all the symptoms lead and my mum and sister have thyroid problems. The medication takes many weeks to work though. The tests all came back with no real problems apart from a lack of folic acid and nothing else. However I think now that the medication must have kicked in because I feel great (physically anyway). I am eating more and have lost a few kilos. On Tuesday I played 2 games on netball and still had energy to burn.
Hopefully I am on a turn for the better! My emotional state is still yet to be determined but hopefully that will get better soon too. |
