I am always tired and always hungry lately. I overslept today even though I went to bed early. Whats wrong with me?

Katia7 · 10-10-2004, 03:29 PM

Hey hun,
I had the same thing (no energy for ANYTHING). Turned out it was B-12 deficiency, so I get B-12 shots now and it helps a lot. Not saying that this is the same thing that's going on with you though, just something you might want to check out. It could also be coming from lack of sleep, not enough activity, or stress.

greekblondechic · 10-10-2004, 03:52 PM

Well, I've been working out when I can muster up the energy, and I actually got pretty good sleep the last two nights. It is really frustrating because I used to have TONS of energy. A little over two years ago, I dont know what happened. I got a chest cold or something with chest pains, I stopped working out, I haven't had enough energy since but I could always blame it on not eating enough or not enough sleep. I had been tested for mono, but didn't have that. Been tested for thyroid (TSH) dont have that. Been tested for anemia dont have that. I do think there is something wrong, but I feel like when I miss workouts most people on here just think I'm lazy. I dunno, right now all I wanna do is lie down and nap. How did you find out what deficiency you have? Why cant you just take B12 orally?

Katia7 · 10-10-2004, 04:01 PM

I also had really bad back aches so I was just searching to what was causing it and came upon this article http://www.animatedmedical.com/Pernanem/pernanem.html
and it descirbed EXACTLY what was going on with me. So I asked my Dr if it was OK for me to take it and he aproved it.
I'm pretty sure you can take B-12 oraly too, but I think it's less eficient then a shot (shots goes striegnt into your blood stream). I can feel it right away, like the next day.

greekblondechic · 10-10-2004, 10:37 PM

I have back aches too

What kind of doc were you seeing again? Wish I had more $$$ for doctors.

Tummy hurts sooooooo bad after chinese food even tho I didnt eat anything fried and didn't eat too much. Oh yeah, had like 4-5 crackers forgot to add that, didn't help tho

Katia7 · 10-10-2004, 10:45 PM

it's all my naturapath Dr... he's truely AMAZING. Honestly I dont think B-12 would hurt anyone, unless you're allergic to it. They tested me for allergies to it, but maybe it's just because I'm allergic to sooooo many things. B-12 also helps the nurvouse system, and if you're constantly stressing, there's a chance your nurvouse system could be weak.

Chinese food always made my tummy hurt too. I wonder what in the world they put in it

When your tummy hurts it's best not to eat anything (especially crackers).. drink some mint tea that should help.

myCATpowerlifts · 10-10-2004, 11:16 PM

I dont want this to sound bad or anything
but viv., your journal makes me depressed

You put up with so much in your life, and you always sound unhappy

and your parents piss me off very much...

greekblondechic · 10-10-2004, 11:17 PM

Katia, I want to go to one but I dont want to waste my time jumping from one to another but I dont know how to pick a good local one.

Sorry mycat

Sorry mycat

it's not your fault, lil sista...

its that you sound so miserable all the time, and i want you to be happy
and i want your life to be in better order so to speak
Not saying that your life is in chaos or anything
but i mean
that your life should be more ful-filling, you know?

Katia7 · 10-10-2004, 11:22 PM

Yeah, that's a hard one

Did you ever write to that lady on curezone I told you about? She has helped me A LOT. I ask her about everything if I can't get to my Dr. She's great.

greekblondechic · 10-10-2004, 11:24 PM

Yeah but just readin that makes me upset. I miss the old happy energetic me, but I cant seem to get her back

KAtia sweetie I saved her email somewhere but I cant find it.. can you PM it to me? thanks hon..

greekblondechic · 10-10-2004, 11:49 PM

Katia7 · 10-10-2004, 11:51 PM
