| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- flapping your broken wings Been tired lately. Unbelievably tired. Thought, at first, that it was just seasonal allergies. Certainly the incessant sneezing and sniffling (so charming to those around me, I'm sure) would suggest that my all of my body' s energies are being drained out right through my sinus cavities. But now they're not so bad (the allergies) and I'm still exhausted - even more so. So then I thought it was the thyroid issue again. I haven't had my blood tested in two years, maybe the medication isn't working anymore. And then, finally, I thought maybe it was depression. The doctor, after a brief examination, zeroed in on that last theory. If you're depressed it can make you feel as tired all get-out (I like my doctor; he's young and bright-eyed and direct but never rude or blunt. He seems kind and has a sense of humor. Meaning he laughs at my lame jokes.) I almost started crying (which should maybe be proof enough, especially since I've neurotically charted my periods and have ruled hormones out as the culprit). So the results of the doctor's visit were this: One trip to the lab for a blood test to check both thyroid and B-12 levels One prescription for allergy nasal spray One referral to a therapist.
