I got carried away

What with the excitement of obtaining Giant Squid status, I think I got carried away a little bit with all the celebrations and decided to try for the 100 club.

It wasn’t until I’d sat down and thought about it a bit that I realised that I just couldn’t do it this time around.

This last week or so I’ve been trying to work out why I’d been feeling so naff all of a sudden and even after all these years I still can get confused!

I had to admit to myself that I was being stupid because I hadn’t taken my medication (for depression) as regularly as I should have. I thought I’d found the problem (which I had!) but found that I was still feeling grotty 2 days later. Again, I had to work out what was causing the problem.

Stupid me, was drinking far too much caffeine (in the form of Lucozade) which is not good as I am intolerant to the stuff. I’d become complacent but eventually my body had decided that enough was enough. So, cutting that out that helped a lot.

But, amazingly I was still feeling poorly.

Now, what?

It turned out to be the vitamin b12. I’d already asked my GP if I could have my injections once every 2 months as once every 3 months wasn’t cutting it. But, now I think I need them every month as all the usual symptoms are coming back: the tiredness, the muggy feeling, the dizzy spells, the stomach problems and the occasional ulcer. I’m next due for an injection on 1st August but I don’t think I’m going to make it that far.

Thinking of this has made me angry all over again about that damn nurse who stopped my injections way too early (in my opinion) back last December.

Now, it’s having a knock on effect. Figures…
