Hello everyone,
I’ve been feeling okay with my HA the past few weeks, so I am not overly anxious at the moment but I am slightly concerned about this issue which has been going on for a couple of months.
I’ve been having feelings of extreme fatigue for about three months now - and I mean sleeping up to 12 hours and waking up feeling exhausted. I’ve had a full blood count, vitamin d and iron stores checked. Ferritin is 18 so could be higher but it’s always been quite low due to heavy periods, and gets better with tablets.
I have an appointment with my doctor again on Wednesday, but the last time I spoke to her two weeks ago she didn’t seem too concerned (or bothered to be honest) and said about CFS but I’m not sure it’s that. I’m going to push for more blood tests as I don’t feel like I explained how much it’s having an impact on my life.
Has anyone had similar and found out the cause? I eat healthily as I have non diabetic reactive hypoglycaemia (and PCOS) so don’t feel it’s diet related.
Other symptoms are loose stools on and off for months (have taken medication a couple of times so could be linked, said to doctor before and she suggested it’s anxiety but as I said above I don’t feel overly anxious at the moment) and stomach pains so I’m wondering if they’re connected?
Thanks all.
