We re-ran the blood test and did a rheumatological blood panel. Only the SED rate came back as way off- again/still.
And my doc is saying NOTHING. I am losing my mind because no one can tell me even a clue or a hint as to whats going on. It could be due to the herniated disc in my back. We are testing me for a recurrence of mono. And thats it. I see an accupuncturist, physical therapist, conselors (individual and group) and an orthopedic doc for my back. Now where do I turn?
I am sleeping 20+ hours a day- this is NOT normal for me, and NOT ok. It does not appear to correlate to any med changes. It is above and beyond my normal fibro fatigue. I already had my liver, thyroid, iron, and etc ad nauseum tested. The only thing wonky is SED rate and D, which I am supplementing with prescription 50k units per week.
I had hoped to get back on my horses this spring. JUst to walk around. But the effort of bringing them in, grooming and tacking up leaves me with no energy to ride, let alone to enjoy my time with them.
Sorry for the long pity party, I’m having a tough week.
