Feeling generally unwell

I know no one here is a doctor or medical expert but I keep going back to the doctors and still don’t feel right.

For roughly the last 4 weeks I’ve had what I can only describe as a hungover feeling varying between a week apart and a few days. My head is heavy and I’m so exhausted most of the time. I also get slightly short on breath and today my chest feels a little achy. Doc has listened to heart, lungs etc and all sounded good.

I’ve got fibroids and possible adeniosis, I’m on a gynae waiting list. The bleeding has made me anaemic and I’m on iron and folic acid as that was low too. But I’ve been on these a couple of months so I would hope for an improvement rather than decline. The next thing they’re testing for is calcium deficiency.

I guess I just wondered if anyone has had something similar and can give me some new ideas as to what’s causing it. I’m supposed to be swimming & trick or treating with my little ones today and I want to feel well.

How old are you?
Which of your irons is low, as if it’s ferritin you’d be better on ferrous Fumarate.

Have you had your thyroid checked?

Have you had B12 checked?
