did they check your blood count? and maybe thyroid?

They took my blood and said they were going to check my electrolytes. I don't know if they were going to check anything else like thyroid levels.

in anyone tired all the time, a blood count for anemia and a thyroid check are in order. i used to practice medicine.

Erika starts playing in the background.

I forgot, I think they checked my thyroid levels when I was in the hospital for severe depression in early February, and I think the results came back normal - at least, they didn't say anything about it not being so. I'd been having the tiredness pretty badly for a couple months then.

Today my eyes are giving me more trouble than usual. I get kind of an odd sensation in the front of my head, and my eyes will move around on their own for a second or two. The feeling goes away when they stop. Gosh, I feel like a whiner, always complaining about things :oops: Getting a bit worried about how long I'll be able to keep doing the job I just got if my health stuff keeps getting worse, though - the job is very physically demanding.

She asked if I'd been having any vision problems, and I think I thought she meant that went along with the dizziness, and the eye thing is something that's been happening occasionally for quite some time, while the dizziness is recent, so I didn't think to mention it. It's only been worse than usual today. I don't remember if I mentioned the leg weakness or not. I'm guessing I should probably mention that?

Ok. I was going to see about making another appointment if the eye thing's still such a problem or if I'm still as dizzy by Monday, because it's been really obnoxious today. If I do, I'll make sure I mention the leg weakness as well. Otherwise my next appointment isn't for three weeks.

I will do anything to be able to have a restful sleep without music lowly playing in the background. I've found a couple of solutions. One for summer and one for winter.
