I am Miserable

I have no idea what is wrong. I have NO energy and I don't even want to go upstairs to take a shower. I have a dr. appt. so hopefully we will find out what is up. I did go see Liz yesterday and I have to wait another month since I am not planning meals like I should. Oh well, life goes on.

Hi- do you have a primary care physician you can talk to ? Why no energy? is it related to your weight? depression? thyroid problem? Anemia?  There are alot of things that can make you tired, but being so tired that you dont want to do regular daily activities isnt good.  Also, why do you think you are not planning your meals like you should?  Did Liz go over everything with you clearly?  Keep your chin up- good luck at your dr. appt- I hope you can get to the bottom of this so you can start feeling better.  Take care- Laura.

Cathy, it's good that you have an appointment with your doctor. From all your previous postings you have had a lot going on in your life over the past months. If after your evaluation by your doctor they find nothing physically wrong you may be going through a depression and they should be able to help you with medication and or counseling. Hang in there and let us know how you make out. Sher

OK, I went to the PCP's phycisians assitant and I have blood work to do. I am also on limited hours at work. Dan could even tell something was wrong since I wasn't my usual self and that concerned him since even when I am sick I am still joking and smiling and I wasn't yesterday. I don't think it is depression since with that I don't WANT to do anything and this is I CAN'T. We shall see.

Kathy - I hope whatever it is that is causing you to feel this way heals quickly and you're back to you cheerful, motivational self - wasn't that you just a short while ago who didn't want to stop exercising....keep the faith - you're in my prayers!

I hope you will be feeling better soon!  You are a strong person and you'll overcome whatever is ailing you and hopefully you and the doctors will find  what is ailing you and will be on the mend!  Keep your faith and keep moving ahead..

Hello Kathy, before surgery..I seldom had energy...walking up the flight of stairs at the end of the day was my least favorite thing to do...I would visit my doctor regularly, and he kept telling me, my worst enemy is my weight...

it has been a little more than a month since I had surgery--my children are amazed at my energy level, and thrilled that I will actually go into the store with them, instead of sitting in the car!   I was afraid to have the surgery..took me two years to actually say YES...I chose to receive a tool to help...53 pounds lighter feels amazing...and although I have a long way to go...I know the road is a lot less bumpy now... I hope you are feeling better soon... blessings, Jennifer
