Prayers & Positive Thoughts Please For Health

@KairynLisa I agree, the whole time the dr was saying x has come back fine, y has come back fine etc I kept thinking well why the blank do I feel like this
 
Sending thoughts and prayers for you, Jennifer!! Take care of yourself! I hope you find out what it is soon and can on the way to getting better!
 
Sending healing vibes your way. Here in Malta there is a strange virus / flu like thing going round. It makes you feel like death warmed up,no energy, no appetite ,not much strength either. It passes... thank God. Perhaps it is something like that. Thinking about you.

@Nemla you're in Malta? I would love to chat with you... my great-grandparents were both from Malta and immigrated to the US in 1914. I have family I have never met that still live there! (Sorry to hi-jack your thread, Jennifer!)
 
Jennifer, the good thing is that hypothyroidism can be easily diagnosed with some T3-T4 blood tests. My mom has it and she is always tired when her thyroid is out of wack. Hugs hun!
 
Jennifer, so so sorry to hear... I am a very well know at our local A&E, and I keep having new conditions diagnosed, so I can totally relate...the hours of wait, the horrid phlebotomists that not sure where they recruit them (at least here in London.... I have to always ask if they have experience and get someone else 75% of the time...hope they find it soon, you will be in our prayers with all our love here.
Huge huge huggzz and keep us updated!!!!!!
 
@KairynLisa you are welcome to PM me. or/and if you tell me what town they come from I will go and take a photo.
Jennifer hope you are feeling better.
 
Oh no!! Hope you feel better soon!! Sending positive thoughts your way. *hugs*
 
Thanks everyone, my drs appt is on Wednesday as my dr only works Wed through Fri so hopefully answers soon
 
Been to my dr and she is pretty sure it’s iron deficiency and possibly other nutrient deficiencies based on my symptoms and the fact I had it 7 years ago. Will be doing extensive blood tests in the next day or so (have to wait for bruising from last weeks tests to ease first) then will be seeing her again end of next week to formulate a treatment plan. She doesn’t believe it is my thyroid based on last weeks lab results but is willing to test anyway.
 
Continued prayers Jennifer. Feel better.
 
Finally have some answers for why i’ve not been 100% lately, low ferritin (iron stores), low vitamin b12 and probably low vitamin d (won’t get that result til end of next week). Luckily I have caught the iron issue before it’s become iron deficiency anaemia like last time as this time around my haemoglobin is fine - if both haemoglobin and ferritin were low then it would have been anaemia again. Have made a plan for treatment with my dr and will see her next Friday as well as the nurse to get my injections to kickstart treatment.
 
Glad you have some answers, Jennifer!! I hope that you are able to get the treatment underway soon and on the road to feeling much better!

Treatment is organized and booked for the 22nd as I need to wait for the vitamin d results first which take a week.
 
Ah - always good when they can come up with a treatment! Hope it helps you feel better soon.

I take an iron supplement too. I was getting dizzy when standing up and my hair was falling out more than it should be. Now my iron is good and those things are not a problem any more.
