Bad Week

The past week has been pretty terrible. I just have not felt well at all. I wasn’t sick persay, but it’s just that state where I just didn’t feel good. During my spare time pretty much all I could do was lay around. I’ve been pretty grumpy too, but that’s just from being in a bad mood because of feeling like crap. There were times when I felt like my body weighed a million pounds and I couldn’t even bring myself to get back up out of bed. It’s been horrible, and I don’t know what’s causing it. I’m hoping that it’s just lack of sleep / sufficient exercise (I was so horribly busy this past week) and that once I start moving around and sleeping more that it’ll get better. Michael and I are meeting to walk tomorrow at 7am, so I’m jump-starting myself back into exercising (hopefully) 2 hours every day (hour of walking / etc, hour of DDR).

I’m off to the doctor on Tuesday to hopefully get the issue with my BC straightened out (basically I’m getting period-like cramps in my abdomen and thighs all the time). Other than that I’m going to discuss with her the route I should take in the process of getting myself back on Metformin. If I’m lucky, she can prescribe it, but if not, then I’m hoping she can give me a hint as to what the fastest way to get back on it would be / give me a refferal to one of the GPs there (since right now I don’t have a GP at all). I just know that the medicine was helping, and while I’m not gaining huge amounts of weight being off it, I’m not losing any either. So I’m scared that unless I can get everything back under control 100%, things are just going to get worse and worse until I end up with Diabetes. But, at least I’ll be on my way again after Tuesday.

I did, however, have a nice day yesterday which consisted of shopping with Michael (he got an $850 suit at Macy’s for about $250), eating at Cracker Barrel, and seeing Coraline in 3D (and yes it was amazing).

And this has been a short entry, but it’s past midnight, and I really should be sleeping.

I hope you get to feeling better. I hate having that “in the middle” feeling…where you’re not quite sick, but just don’t feel like yourself. Hopefully everything goes good at the doctor!

I think Amber might be in the same boat of “not exactly sick”. We’re hoping to get her back on a realistic schedule and we’re BOTH planning on getting back into exercise, something we lost during our bout with this godforsaken cold/flu/plague/whatever.

Hopefully all three of us feel better.

I really hope the doctor is able to do something to regulate your BC and figure out what is up with the cramping and such. I think a lot of people are getting in weird mood funks lately and don’t know why they are either. I blame the season.
