Why do I feel ill?!

[Kimmie]

Scott's right about the glandular fever, keep an eye on it!

I used to feel like this all the time, then found out it was Coeliac Disease. This also meant I had low iron, and was lacking in most vitamins. Look it up, it's really undiagnosed and I felt like crap for 5 years before I was!

If you do try to increase your iron intake, then be careful, as you can actually OD on iron. Tablets/liquids I'd consult a doctor first, but things like spinach added to your diet will really improve it!

Yeah glandular fever is aweful.. i was off work for over a month and lost over a stone and a half with it and it never actually leaves your system so you can have it way more than once, it can even last for years!

Too much sleep as said could be an issue, and also the weather can be affecting you - it fucks me right up, and makes me well lethargic. Changing a wheel is a mammoth task. Or just cos you're cornish.

I've been like this for the last few weeks! I put it down to not sleeping due to working hours but even today driving home, I was having trouble keeping my eyes open and had a perfectly good nights sleep last night!

Go see a Dr Ruan. They will request a full blood test, which should show up any abnormalities. Self medication probably isn't the best way forward in your case.

Sounds like you might be a whiny twat to me









No, seriously though, if you feel that shit every day then see a GP mate, this is why we pay their exorbitant wages. It's not just so they can f*ck their receptionist then piss off to the golf course at 2.30

EVERY time I go to the doctors it's either

A. Gastritis (A.K.A. I've not a f*cking clue, but your stomach lining is probably a bit pissed off with something you ate)

or

B. You're not sleeping right, go to bed at the normal time and get routine, which I do do...

I've had full blood tests before - like 3 times now (hilariously my dad normally does the test and picks up the results and I know the results before the doctors lol...) and they always check out fine...

It's because you're really tall with giant feet

[Matt]

Gingervitus?



Seriously I've been feeling like this recently, when/if I get sleep I'm up all the time throughout the night, feel tired during the day all the time, lack of motivation. Feel "sick" most days, can't be f*cked to go to work, but can't be f*cked to stay in bed, eyes feel lazy and slightly blurred, driving is becoming dangerous (so im getting a bike lol). Hoping mines down to the shit diet I have, sorting that out and going to start using sleeping pills

[Kimmie]

Ruan if they're saying it's something to do with your stomach, I'd seriously consider asking them to test for Coeliac. It's not usually included in a full blood count unless requested. It messes with your digestion and is commonly mistaken for IBS and a dodgy tummy, but it's pretty serious!

As said, get yourself back to the Doctors and demand more investigation. I had to do this after 5 years of being fobbed off. Pretty sure they only listened though because my Mum came down with me

Strange one mate.

I've never had a blood test personally. I aim to beat my dads' record, he never had his blood taken until he was 39.

Over halfway there...

Lol, I'll take that as a challenge.........I've also never had one, and aim never to have one either.
