it's been a week since my last blog and on the day of my last blog I started to feel ill and have felt ill since then :( basically I have a headache, slight temperature and feel dizzy...I went to see the doctor last friday just because it's not a bug I've had before and the doctor said it's probably a virus and to rest up, drink fluids and take painkillers so that's what I did...all weekend...on monday I wasn't feeling much better so I went back to see the doctor because that's what my doctor said to do if I wasn't getting better...saw a different doctor who said it could be sinusitus and so prescribed me some nasal spray to clear my sinuses.
basically at this point I'm just very frustrated...with a normal cold or something I would just carry on as normal and let my body fight it off...but because I'm dizzy when I stand up I can't do much but lie on the sofa. And actually at this point, when I have been lying on the sofa for a while I feel much better, slight headache and temperature still but pretty good...then I stand up again and am dizzy and off-balance, then when I sit down I get a head-rush type thing but bad...it's not nice :(
and it's been carrying on for a week now, I had to miss uni on monday and tuesday. my goal is to be better by Friday since I have my induction booked for my new job and would really like to do that. Mum has said she could drive me in and apparently I would be sitting down for most of it, I think it's online training basically but who knows...I'm going to try sitting up more tomorrow to see how I feel, in the hope that I feel alright and can get through the induction.
I also have social stuff planned over the weekend, couple of cinema trips- things like that..which I really want to do. I think if I'm still bad enough on Friday that I can't make it into induction then I'm going back to the doctor. the doctor I saw on Monday said that it could also be anaemia related, and it's not the first time this has been mentioned and throughout all the blood tests I've had over the last year the level that indicates anaemia has been on the lower side so maybe that's what it is.
Maybe it's just sinusitus that's taking a while to go away, maybe it's just a weird bug, maybe it's something completely different!
Either way I wish it would go away, I'm getting frustrated being confined to the sofa, I miss my friends so much it's stupid!
Right, that's all I have to say, sorry it's not a more interesting post, but nothing else has really happened since last week other than me being ill so you have to live with it!
Much love xxx
