Exhausted, run down and depressed

[YummyorSlummy]

Ok, I feel shattered all of the time, I feel cold all the time for some reason even when I know the house is warm and I have a thick jumper on I'm still cold. I have these awful mood swings and just feel depressed and generally crap.I also have some kind of irritable bowel or digestion problem as I'm always bloated and have 'number 2' issues! When I get up in the morning i feel like its the middle of the night iyswim. I have to wait a week or so before I can see a doc so any ideas of how to feel good in the meanwhile?

Why do you have to wait so long? it sounds to me like you need to see someone much sooner than that. Could be something or nothing (sounds possibly like thyroid to me but i am no expert) but I'd push for a sooner appointment. Anything else, like a tonic, for example, is not going to work quickly.

phone the doctor or go round there and pester in person!
