I need some help with this I’m going mad

[Birthdaybits]

I suffer with endometriosis and some fatigue the last week it’s been awful nearly fallen asleep I’ve spent the whole afternoon trying not to sleep. I’ve gone past the point of exhaustion when I got home I can’t even get to sleep for a nap. LAst night I got 10 hours sleep which is great but why am I still exhausted I’ve called for a doctors appointment but it’s not for 2 weeks I can’t work like this as it’s affecting my job.

Could you be in peri-menopause? You should have you thyroid levels checked to rule that out.

Op - that sounds awful! I really feel for you. Do you think you could be anaemic? Can you call your go every day to see if you can get a cancellation? Hugs xx

I’ve had my thyroid levels checked recently and anemic was done last year

Look at spoons theory for fatigue management as a short term approach while you are waiting for a medical appointment

Yes I use spoons approach in the past but I’m not doing anything other than working I’m just asleep when I’m not home or sat down eating. I can’t afford not to work and work can’t afford to not have me working at the moment

Already debating a nap as I’m so tired already

Woke up at 7.30 napped at 10 until 12 was still tired but had a hair highlights appointment nearly fell asleep in the chair went home had an hour nap now just trying to stay awake untill 9.30 so I can get a whole nights sleep. Work rang today I messed up on Monday due to being half asleep was a small mistake and fixed but I feel awful for it I’ve got work tomorrow not sure how I’m going to cope my manager is on holiday so I need to go in or we can’t open

My eyes permanently feel heavy and ache

Feeling exhausted already and only an hour into work I’m have to make it through the day

Don’t really know what to suggest. Have you got a drs appt coming up? You need to talk to them about how you are physically as it’s clearly not normal! You should probably be signed off work too. Sending hugs, let us know how you get on. Xx
