I've been majorly bummed for months. Drank my coffee and went straight into dog mode - need an hour nap anfter coffee or food. Got diet sodas to get the caffeine again. I've had a really hard time with staying awake. I need caffeine or alcohol (sugar content). I've been told my bp is low - been told that for years. 89/57..or 92/63 wouldn't you want to take a nap?

Does anyone here want to take a nap 2 hours after eating every meal?

Nalley

are you on Blood P. Meds now?

if not - you need to be - thats low - obviously with your NO engery level

you know that..

get to a DR. to regulate the proper meds.. & you'll have energy

another thought - have you had your THYROID checked recently? it's all connected and one will trigger same signs & false sense of knowing the real problem..?

NO Nap time..

our heat makes me tired - Thanksgiving is the only good time to nap after eating.

Try adding more fruit to your diet. Coffee and alcohol will make you tired in the long run.

Tell the doctor that, you shouldn't be that tired, NV.

All good advice was given, now the wise thing to do, would be is to take it!

NV:-6....I sincerely hope that you feel better, but you really need to get this taken care of soon. You're going through a lot of stress right now...hope things will work themselves out.

You might ask your doc for a TSH simple blood test to check out your thyroid function. Being low (hypothyroid) might be your problem.

Lon

that's exactly what I thought - Thyroid

Nalley

There's a saliva test for thyroid testing incase a blood test does not indicate or provide accurate results for thyroid.

Are you losing alot of your hair when you wash your hair.??

are you thirsty.?

I'd suggest seeing a DR for testing..

I'm on thyroid meds - a natural called Armour

I was tired - lost hair and thirsty.

Good luck

keep us posted Nalley

Get tested for diabetes too. Your blood sugar is highest 2 hours after a meal. A sugar rush could make you need to sleep too. You might need meds to balance the sugar in your blood.

Good idea diabetes - hopefully the blood work & other testing will get NValleys condition under control.

do you have diabetes? I'm border line there.

but alot of things can trigger your system into a down fall.. stress

good idea Rap..
