Sick and tired of being sick and tired!

Heya, I need to have a whinge and saw this part of the forum

I have been unwell for almost 3 months, not going to work and feeling quite poorly. No doctors have figured out what is going on yet, despite the MANY tests and specialists i have seen ($$$$). Its like a never ending battle...Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo over it, i just want to crawl in a hole and come out when they've figured it out.... I am lucky that my work is being very nice about it and i have little Dukey making my days more bearable, also glad that this forum has been around to distract me when I'm at home watching re-runs of friends

Rant over

Nothing worse than feeling sick/run down for a long period of time. Especially when you are unsure as of why.

Hope you feel better soon, it's always great to be able to rant though lol!

I think the worst part is the not knowing. I hope they find out what it is and your back to full power soon
>< From me
>< From Blue <----- These ones are good

Not a good feeling when there are no answers. I hope you feel better very soon. ><

Know how you feel, been like this for four or five years now and still haven't figured out what it is or figured out anything that'll work for me. It's definitely a terrible feeling. Hope the doctors can figure it out soon and you feel better very soon. Glad work is so understanding though, that's got to be a good thing

Hope you feel better soon ><

Awww it's always worse when you dont know whats wrong

Hope you feel better soon Casey ><

Thanks for the love! I feel better already .

The worst is not knowing I agree.

Tara - I hope you keep trying to find answers, one doctor told me to not give up searching for answers, He has helped me massively not give up.

Staffy hugs are the best mind you staffy barking is not good for the headache lol damn puppy!

hugs back - for some reason by smileys are not working..

Hope they work out soon what is wrong and get you all fixed up >< Remember in meantime that Staffy hugs are the best medicine in the world

Really hope they can get to a diagnosis for you very soon, not knowing what's wrong just makes you stress about it more. Thankfully you have the many ears of the forum and they amount to some very broad shoulders for you too. Rant away that's what this section of forum is for >< >< ><

Aww big >< >< hope you feel we'll again soon, I can empathise I've been in chronic pain for 3 years, its not good. I do hope you get a diagnosis soon.

Hope you feel well really soon ><

Thanks again for all the love Im feeling on the mend which is nice. Specialist told me about post viral syndrome and thinks I have that. Going to cut down work hours and rest rest rest!

Good to hear you have some sort of idea anyway now.

I had to cut my hours away back last year as I was working myself too hard. So hopefully it will help you too

Hope it helps you

Thanks for all the love

I have now had 6 days of feeling ALOT better, almost normal!! Its fantastic Had a lovely weekend & Back to work next Sunday! Poor Duke wont know whats happening as ive been off work since we got him..

Great news your feeling better it's was similar for us with darcy because my son was out of work when we got her so she hadn't been on her own, he got a job 12 wks ago and obviously I go shopping and things so we just started short breaks on her own in her crate, she has a porch her crate opens on to so can stretch her legs if she wants. I leave the TV on low, and the 1st couple of times I left my iPod on record to make sure she wasn't crying, (no noise whatsoever) im pretty sure she just sleeps the whole time im out, now I can leave her when I go out no probs (I never leave her more than 3 hrs) but that's because I want to get bk for puppy snuggles apologies for the essay

So glad you are feeling better at last kc, I was going to tentatively suggest ME or post-viral syndrome, especially if you had the particularly nasty flu that seems to have going around Australia.

My mum (OK, she's a LOT older than you!) had post-viral fatigue a couple of years ago and I thought she would never be well again, but she is! It did take time and rest though.

Good luck with your return to work - don't overdo it! ><

Great news and good luck with your return

Just wanted to say thanks everyone for your support! I finally have some answers and some medications and have gone back to full time work! Sorry I haven't been around much, life got in the way! Hope your all well

That's great news casey
