Fatigue

This started either 2 years ago or just over a year ago, but I get so darned tired some day's I feel like I can't do anything but sleep. Blood tests in the past had said slightly anemic but doc said it was so slight I shouldn't feel tired due to it, also have been so tired I barely felt I could make it to the Dr.s office and had her run blood work and every single thing was perfect, no anemia or anything, thyroid perfect etc.

I'm assuming this is part of anxiety to an extent but I've felt pretty well lately, or at least have been battling it by keeping my mind quiet about things for a good few months, other than that the only thing my doc has suggested is possible sleep apnea.

I'm staying away from Dr. Google so I just wondered if anyone else has had this going on?

Also another thing about it is, it sometimes comes and goes, I'll feel great for awhile or normal, then BAM and especially around ovulation time, I get really tired. My mother swears I'm going through the change possibly, all the women on my mothers side of the family had went through the change totally by 38-39, I'm currently 35, and we just learned my cousin has started going through it and she just turned 36. Any thoughts about peri-menopause or if menopause can make you tired?

Thanks for reading,

SC,

I did take a multi with Iron, but since everything is back in line I don't take it daily.

My diet isn't the best possible, but it's pretty good, I eat a lot of veggies and fresh greens, also eat almost strictly organic. Haven't put the gluten sensitivity stuff out of mind fully, as I do know that can cause some vitamin loss, and I am definitely sensitive to it.

Started exercising recently and I do feel better when I do it, but can feel tired later on in the day, honestly, I know I have not gotten enough in the past 13ish years, I've started with power 90, and will hopefully graduate to the power 90 x.

I'm fully ready for menopause!! I've seen my good ol' "aunt Flo" enough now, I'm ready to move on and have no intentions of having any more children.

I've often wondered how well you get along daily with all the things you have to absorb from this website, I'm almost positive you read each and every post, I don't think I could do your job, Kudos to you for being able to handle it so well and for so long!

With no insurance and not for lack of trying to get it, they won't send me for a sleep study, however she (my doctor) did mention something called sleep link or something along those lines, but she always forgot about it towards the end of my appointment and so would I. Have been thinking strongly of calling her about it.

For the most part I've been handling the anxiety pretty well recently, of course it shows up daily, but I have been able to hush my mind for the last couple months, knock on wood, but I'm going to stick out the exercising and try not to think about any of this, the more I stay busy the better.

Have a good one and thank you for replying.

Jp,

I do read pretty much every post! However, I do not feel the need to reply to all of them, as I work alongside Kitt, and we have great members who give great input and advice!!:)

I really do love moderating here, and get way more out of it than I put in.

XOXOXO
