Ha, reminds me of that song in “Blazing Saddles.” Classic Mel Brooks. Love it.
But seriously, I wish I had energy. This fatigue is getting out of control. Yesterday, after going to bed around 1:00 a.m. on Saturday night and sleeping in until 10:00 a.m. on Sunday (which I never, EVER do – I even missed singing at church), I got up, went to the theatre for strike/build, and stayed until around 2:00. By the time I got home, I could barely keep my head up and my eyes open, and all I did was lay on the couch until about 9:00 p.m. My whole body had a dull ache to it.
It is getting to be about “that time,” so it would stand to reason that this could be PMS-related stuff… but I’ve never had it quite this bad before. Or, maybe, I’ve never really been this alarmed by it before. Maybe I’m on “high alert” because of other health-related things in my life right now. It does have me worried, a bit.
Fortunately, I’ve got my appointment on February 9 to examine the birthmark-related issues… among which the fatigue may be. I read somewhere that people with my kind of birthmark can sometimes have a sort of anaemia associated with it - not surprising, since the blood is basically pooling in my right leg, which could be starving the rest of my body of oxygen. All questions for the doctor, I guess.
