I've got a GP appt next week to discuss blood tests and hopefully get a bit further working out what's going on. I think it's something autoimmune / ME /CFS.
Symptoms :
Exhaustion that used to be periodic but is now constant. Sleeping for 12 hours most nights and often napping/ resting during the day.
I work part time. After a work day I need a couple of days to recover. Feel very weak and flu like.
Achey limbs particularly a day or two after exercise (which I've limited drastically recently).
Blurred vision when I'm really tired.
Itchy, crawling, tingling, burning sensations under my skin. The burning isn't all the time but the itchubg/ tingling is constant.
Last night I went to bed at 7pm as normal. The heating was on and read 21 degrees but I needed pyjamas, dressing gown and a full on sleeping bag under my duvet to feel warm enough.
Which of these should I mention to the GP? What will happen next?
