flaring: no energy, light headed

I've been flaring for less than a week. It is not a bad flare. Symptoms affecting me mostly first thing in the morning. Slightly formed, soft, loose stools with smears of blood. Dealing with it by increasing fiber thru food and psyllium husk, and suppositories, etc.

I'm not too worried about getting out of this flare soon, especially since I have remicade in a week which will help me immensely.

My PROBLEMS I'd like your help with is:

-Today I have been extremely light headed and have had extremely low energy. Took two 1hr naps today, which I NEVER do. Even during past flares I haven't napped. Have been trying hard to drink a lot of water, thinking it could be a result of dehydration.

-I have also had really bad stomach cramps after eating. No matter what it is. I'm only eating my safe foods, yet still not happy.

  

ANYONE have any THOUGHTS or ADVICE....would be very greatful.

(What symptons does one get with c-diff? Is that a possibility.)

 

It sounds like anemia but since you say it's not related, have you had you blood pressure checked? It could be low? I had that when I had anemia and I was always light headed.

I never have any energy, it was worse when I had low iron but I am still lacking energy, even though my iron is normal. When my WBC was low due to 6mp, I had even less energy than usual. Sounds like you had blood work recently and this isn't related. Have you tried vitamin d or b12?
