Fatigue

I went to a new primary care doctor on Nov. 18. I liked her a lot! I explained my fatigue and the fact that I feel crappy most days. She asked if I'm anxious or depressed. She said most women can't get through all of this without some type of medication. I told her that I'm anxious. She increased the dose of my Effexor to 75mg to see if that helps with the anxiety and to see if it helps me sleep better at night. I was hoping that my blood work would show that something was "off" but it came back normal. 

She asked me if I exercise. I just kind of looked at her for a moment thinking "Are you kidding? I don't even want to get out of bed in the morning!" I did go on two really long hikes this past week and that felt really great!

I read something last night about adrenal fatigue. I wonder if that is what is going on with me. I will have to do some more research into it. 

I'm thinking about going vegetarian for a while to see if that helps. I'm definitely going to get out my juicer and make a tasty (not!) green leafy drink.
