The side effects have subsided. I am hungry again and my dizzy spells have reduced. I've always had trouble moderating my body temperature but I have felt very hot lately but that's no biggie compared to last week's events.
However, it's Friday today and I feel incredibly low. The pain returned on Monday evening and has lingered ever since.
I have seen another GP and he has classified me as having mild clinical anxiety and moderate clinical depression. I'm not sure what the 'clinical' bit means but it sounds rather formal, doesn't it! Meanwhile, I continue to go to work but feel the strain an awful lot more. I can snap out of my low mood for brief periods but I'm physically exhausted from it.
I went swimming last night and rested a float between my legs so that I wouldn't kick them. It felt good to use my arm muscles and although I was adamant I'd be really achey today - no such luck! It's funny to crave that tired muscle ache but it's been so long since I really exerted myself I think my body is missing the challenge and is getting more tired of being so sedentary.
Not that I am actually sedentary, but compared to how I was I'm almost a fossil.
I feel like a fossil trapped in a big old hunk of rock. Pretty cosy but feeling alone and unable to crack the rock - at least not yet.
