I haven't been feeling too great for over a month now. I keep having episodes where I feel like I'm going to just fall asleep (extreme fatigue hits suddenly), especially when at the dinner table, but it also happens at random other times of day, such as when working.
Nothing seems to really help. I'm drinking water, eating snacks.. I get up and move around, do a little exercise... it seems to perk me up slightly for a brief moment but goes right back to the feeling of needing to nap. I'm going to cut back on some vitamins to see if any of them are the culprit (maybe getting toooo relaxed from anything that helps with stress).. I know I do tend to run low with my blood pressure, so IDK if something is making that worse for me.
I also don't know if it's just from staring at a bright screen all day because I'm not allowed to add any blue light filters to the work computer.... or some hormonal issues... thyroid.. blood sugar (but glucose is usually normal on tests, aside from one time it was low after I drank a bunch of water beforehand)!? I've been trying to be better about my dehydration, and this symptom seems to be getting worse, so I've also thought maybe I need more salt now! AAGHH.. too many possibilities.
I'll bring it up with my cardiologist, as I see him on Tuesday for my echo; maybe I'll have to get more tests done.
I hope you get to the bottom of things soon. I find that taking an extra nap or two does help but everyone is different.
Hugs to Heather. I hope your cardiologist has an idea or can at least point you in the right direction.
Today for me MH wise beautiful, we had a fantastic walk it rained in the night and this morning was bright sunshine which lifted a thin grey mist from the grass as we walked through the woods ,it was really magical and beautiful and everything was so green and shining, the birds were singing it was just fantastic.
Physically a little different my toes feel as if they are broken, my right shoulder hurts, both hips are killing me and my knee has started to click.

I am feeling good.
I have created a new eBook on Lulu.com: eBooks are all the rage and all over the Internet. People tend to enjoy their kindle more than a paperback. Plus, it is cheaper to purchase. I move with the times.
I also have had my morning coffee, so that has helped my mood stay positive.
A bit sick, actually. I have a headache and like my temperature has gone up. I feel hungry, too.
I just feel awful.
Look on the good side. It's good to feel hungry. It's when you are ill and off your food that you lose strength for fighting an illness. At least you can eat more liquid foods and keep them down?
Its the grain of sand that wears down the rock. Little things that annoy me until Im like a firework waiting for a spark to set me off.
There are two things that can really wind me up:
Kids, though now that they are adults, this has passed
Computers! I remember the first time my mobile got into 'assistant' mode. It was all I could do not to smash it against the wall. I had to keep telling myself that "It can be fixed, I just have to wait until I can go home and google it."
A bit rough this morning. I slept in a funny position last night as I had tooth / jaw ache so I couldn't lay on it. I also had some sinus issues. All in all I had troubled sleep. This morning I have a fuzzy head and streaming nose. Probably just a cold but I'm not 100%. I often seem to get a bug in my teeth before it affects me generally. It's a sure sign
