I just got my results from my blood work....
High cortisol Levels, low b12 levels, and a UTI.
Now I have to go back for more blood work and see a urologist.
I have my sleep study scheduled for tomorrow night.
Two days later...
Have you ever tried to sleep attached to 47 wires? On your head, arms, feet, across your chest...
I have no idea how this sleep study could give any results! I got hardly any sleep. I had to take 2 lunesta's and 3 melatonin just to doze off for an hour and wake up having to pee!
I was in a room, set up just like a bedroom. When I needed anything I just had to say "Hello!" so now having to pee, being disoriented, I wake and call out "Hello, is there anyone there!"
A voice comes over the intercome, "Yes..."
"I gotta pee..."
"One minute."
And then the woman comes in, grabs my wires and throws them around my neck and I have to walk to the bathroom carrying all my wires, groggy from all my pills, blinded from the light in the hall way, and sit down to pee while trying to keep the wires out of the way.
That takes talent.
I was woken up at 5am, wires removed, and sent home. I went straight to bed.
That was awful
Three days later...
I feel like I have gone crazy.
I'm not used to going to so many doctors.
Usually I just let myself be sick.
I feel like a hypochondriac.
Look at me, Within the last two weeks I have had 14 vials of blood taken, I've gone for a sleep study, and today I just called to make another doctors appointment.
Ever since the sleep study I have had this awful migraine.
Shooting pain starting to the left of my right eye ball and moving right down the whole half of my head, if that makes any sense. It sits right in the back of my head, like it pooled overnight and is just waiting to burst through my brain.
It feels like my head is imploding.
I can't focus.
I'm freezing.
I'm nauseous.
I can't keep my eyes open.
I can't keep them shut.
If I shut my eyes I can still see the light. I can see the image of my pupil dilate and with every dilation comes this tearing white pain.
What the hell is going on with me??
I have no energy, like zero.
I am 150% exhausted. It takes all I have to even keep my eyes open past 7:30pm.
Last night I got this terrible chill I could not shake. I took my temperature and it was 96.6 degrees. I thought you would be hot if you had a low temperature....
I ran a scalding hot bath and jumped in trying to shake this chill.
I had to refill the bath with hot water twice because the water went luke warm and I was still shivering. I stayed in there for over an hour.
After I got out I felt a little bit better but that didn't last long.
I was able to stay up for about an hour and then I tucked into bed and watched House of Cards for a couple hours.
My headaches was back so I watched with one eye open while putting pressure on the right side of my head.
Stress really does make you sick.
