sudden tiredness

[n.irishguy]

hi guys,

im experiencing random and sudden tiredness, it feels like i have no energy at all, extremly drained and can get a " i could puke here " feeling.

lasts a few hours, i just lay down till it passes. cant figure out if its related to my digestive probs or its anxiety.

anyone else get this?

p.s i cant sleep when i experience this, just drained etc

It could be a mixture of both. Anxiety can make the stomach produce more acid and this in turn makes you feel sick. I went through a period of this about 2 years ago and felt tired and sick most days. The lansoprazole did eventually help and I also felt that sucking mints made me feel a bit better.

Yes, it could be from your anxiety causing GI (gastrointestinal) problems. GI problems are also related to chronic fatigue which seems to be what you're getting. Medications can also cause tiredness and I remember you being prescribed propranolol - so that could also be a factor if you're still taking it.

You should find that these problems subside as your anxiety improves but in the meantime I find that mint tea helps with the stomach problems.

im not taking proponanol, took maybe one tablet! but decided to quit smoking, which ive seen great improvements with the palpitations.

i know ive got anxiety.............but it wont improve till the docs finish all their tests so i know i dont have to worry about the physical side of things.

today i seen docs, and they told me i have to wait 6 months for the mri!!

i said so it doesnt matter ive been unwell for 4 months, lost 3 stone and have been off work for 5 weeks now!!!! i said when do you guys take me seriously, when im unconsious? he said you gotta wait like everyone else.

nhs............cant live with it cant live with out it lol
