Gaynor, if you carry on the way you are, your presence in the office will mean nothing.. believe me I've done exactly what you are doing and put everyone else first.. you MUST get this sorted, as soon as possible, or you could possibly end up really poorly!!

Take good care of yourself.

Love

That could be as a result of a recent cold Gaynor, the ears get it too. Are you going dizzy, not faint, but like the room is spinning? The ears drain out through the throad, hence the tickle. Best get that checked out too. Your doctor won't mind.

My Mum had an underactive thyroid but it wasn't diagnosed until she was about 70... she had a job getting it diagnosed too... I think our GP is maybe rather cautious.
I will go to the Dr's but at the moment we have only 3 of our 5 staff in the office and I am training 2 girls from another office (My Boss is off sick.... ) Anyway it's a bit difficult at the moment but I WILL go.

Oh !!! ..... and something else...

when I sit in certain positions my ears go funny inside.. well sort of in the fleshy part of your neck under your ears next to your jaw bone and it feels strange when I yawn ....

and I wake up in the night with an irritating tickle in my throat so I have to always take a glass of water to bed with me these days ....

Sorry... promise I will stop moaning now

Hi Gaynor

It could be Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D,) caused by low light levels. We have endured a very dull year and many people are suffering from this. Try googling it and see if it fits your condition.

Gaynor,
please go for a blood test on your thyroid,
i have an overactive thyroid and i am having radioactive iodine treatment for it, i have a 4th next week, i was diognosed 4yrs ago, and like you i also get very tired, even today i had to go to bed and i slept for over 2hrs!

you can get extreamly tired with over or under, and if you don't get treatment it will be worse, so get to the DRs tomorrow!!!
Chris.

Actually EB is right, your sugars might have been ok at the time you tested, so don't eliminate it. A fasting blood test will show sugar levels from the last three months, and glucose leaves a trail, which won't be picked up on a home testing kit.

You could just be run down, you have been through an awful lot over the last year or so, but please don't ignore it, get it sorted. It's not moaning.

My periods are a bit dodgy now... I have been tested for a couple of years ago aswell and I am heading for the menopause I know this. I have irregular periods now every 4-7 weeks usually. I am very heavy for 1-2 days and then it sems to stop after the 3rd day.
I am due right now.

gaynor,you cant judge your blood sugars by that test sometimes mines ok.you need to have a fasting blood test which can check your bloods from the passt few weeks which is how long it takes for each cell to die.
also my thyroid was borderline for 2yrs before it dropped further and I needed thyroxine.
even if it isnt either of these,something isnt right so please go and get it sorted.
Do you have very heavy periods as that can drain you too.

We are all entitled to moan sometimes, and although tiredness doesn't sound like much of a symptom, it can indicate something bigger.

Glad you tested yourself for your blood sugars, sounds good.

I'd get tested again for the thyroid at least.

I don't think I'm diabetic... I'm not particularly thirsty and i know my blood count is ok cos my Dad's diabetic and I tested it with his sticky pen thingy. I was 4.7 which he says is good.
Hubby wondered about the iron which is why he got multi vits with iron.
I think I may have to go back to the Doc though, I don't like to sound like I'm moaning though.

Gaynor, it is wonderful to se your name on the boards again.. but please do as your told and get to your GP as soon as possible!!!. And point out that if your thyroid is continually at borderline, your body is not operating at full throttle so to speak. the line at borderline is fuzzy.. some people operate well, others feel symptoms such as yours. But you need to see your doctor.

Good luck.. and make the appointment tomorrow... very pretty please!!

Love
