Good news...I guess...

I went to my doctor today to get some lab work done...hope to have the results soon. I have to be honest...I am a TERRIBLE patient...I told ya'll that, but I have been REEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYY tired lately...and this drove me to the doc today. I mean as in I go to the bathroom at work so I can shut my eyes a few minutes before I fall asleep at my keyboard. I sleep at night...have a hard time waking up...this ISNT me...I have always been Ms 4 a.m. and NEVER ONCE fell asleep at work...wouldn't evene think of it?!?! Maybe my body is trying to catch up from the whole Atlanta trip?!?! I don't know...any ideas on what might be going on?!? Do I need to exercise more??? Less??? Tired of being Tired, TJ

Do you take iron supplements? Could be that you are a bit low on that. Or B12...that has to do with energy. Hopefully your labs will show an explanation and you can get your supplements adjusted appropriately. Kathy

My first guess would be B-12 deficiency...keep us posted.

I fell the same way as you, and my iron is really low.All other bloodwork was great,so my doctor gave me a sheet on way to get in more iron.

Are you getting in all your protein?
