Hello all...I was wondering if any of you had any suggestions about this crappy lightheadedness I seem to get when I get my period...it actually hasnt started "all the way" yet but it happened last month but not until a few days after it got started...and of course with the anxiety now I am worried that something is wrong or im going ot pass out or something...it only usually happens around my period or during it and I had my first endocrinologist appt last week and they are testing me for anemia but this just freaks me out and my dh still at work...i just get scared by myself and that is so horrible cause im 27, i should be able to handle this mess!! But i guess i just want to know if anyone else has this problem during their period, and what do you do about it? My holstic doctor's lab guy is also going to be testing my female hormones sometime in the next couple weeks too because the Endo did not seem interested in testing anything but my thyroid and rechecking my adrenals...i kind of wanted to smack her...but i guess I will lay low this weekend and just get rest...thanks for letting me vent im so tired of this crap!! lol much love to all...

Hey girl...sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you last week was kinda yucky lol...supposedly all of my tests with my thyroid and adrenals look good and balanced right now which is a good thing, but my naturopath and endo have suggested that I might have chronic fatigue syndrome because of some other symptoms that I have like swollen lymph nodes, and if i have a good day i will do alot and then it takes at least a day or more for me to feel better afterwards...almost like i ran a marathon even though it could be as simple as cleaning the house lol....so i did some research on it and it makes alot of sense....alot of people think its a "trashcan" conidition but if that is the case that I do have it, its def not a trash can thing lol. but anyway, that is my crappy news now on to more happy ones lol.
I totally agree with the handbag thing...did you get your Chanel one yet? I was looking at handbags on here this past weekend....and i bawled my eyes out at Greys!! Especially with Izzy and Denny...i was upset that they didn't have a new one on this past week....I am a huge Gilmore Girls fan too have you ever watched that? i went broke last year buying all of the seasons that are out so far, along with Sex and The city lol...
I am so glad that everything went well, and it sounds like you have alot to keep you busy with the baby shower and all!! that is exciting...how is your anxiety? and yes, it does give me a sense of control when i can handle it....im on the lowest dosage possible of my xanax and hope to keep it that way lol...today I am just hanging out been doing some housework my husband teases me and calls me little miss susie homemaker lol but I dont mind it...i have a hard time going places lots of times, but i make myself go. well, write me back and let me know how you are this week! And I am glad you feel like you found a friend, because I do too and it helps so much...because there are times when I feel like im alone lol....much hugs and luv!!

It's so nice to hear from you! It sounds like you are making some progress with finding out what is making you feel the way you do. That rocks! I have never heard of the "trashcan" condition. I feel stupid asking, but what is it? LOL! I am glad you are feeling better.
I was so mad that GA was old last week. I rushed home, out of a nice dinner out with my sweetie, to watch it. And it was way old! How could they do that to us? They gave us the best two episodes ever and then leave us hanging. I use to watch Gilmore Girls but kind of lost interest. I love watching MTV reality shows. I am addicted to The Hills, Real World and Maui Fever. My sweetie calls me a "teenie bopper" but that does not stop me from watching, and he even watches it with me! LOL!
My anxiety has been okay. I have a lot of trouble sleeping at night and my Lexapro (10mg) has started to make me have some short-term memory loss. Nothing serious, just little stuff, like if I did something at work and I try to remember if I did and can't. Or I will ask the same question twice and not remember that I alreay asked it. Plus, sometimes my anxiety makes me obsess about whether or not I did something right or not. For the most part, my social anxiety has gotten better. Talking to someone that understands has really helped. If you don't mind me asking, what is your mg on your xanax? Mine is .25 mg, is that the lowest dosage? That is what helps me sleep at night.
Well you little homemaker...try and have a good week. I will be online everyday except for Thurs. if ya need to talk. Many hugs and much luv!

Hey you...how has your week been? I hope Greys is new tonite....none of my shows except for Heroes and Gilmore Girls has been new this week...and now im upset that Heroes is not going to be back on until April 23rd though....this week has been pretty good...im a little squirrely today but I think it is just because im tired lol...i went in and hung around a bit with my naturopath and she thinks i have chronic fatigue syndrome as well...but she thinks that I will be able to build myself back up so i can be somewhat "normal" like I was before...i just need to watch myself and make sure that I don't overdue it i guess...I found some really good websites that explain alot...but anywho enough about me write me and tell me how you are doing...not much going on here lol just being housewifey and taking care of my skinny self lol...and im on .25mg of Xanax as well..i take it three times a day...it helps me sleep at night too..its good to stay on that low dosage because there is less of a chance of getting addicted...i cant tolerate any kind of antidepressants but my naturopath has me on something called Li-zyme which contains natural Lithium...its for my thyroid but also helps with depression so I guess that is a good thing lol...they were giving me .5mg of Xanax in the hospital but it made me too tired....they also tried to give me sleeping pills with them which i learned from my new psych is a big no no so I am passing it on toyou lol in case there is a night you cant sleep even with the Xanax...i guess because the Xanax calms you down and slows your nervous system and slows your heart rate, if you take sleeping pills there is a chance that those combined with the Xanax can slow your heart rate too much, even make it stop i was horrified when she told me this..i never took the sleeping pills in the hospital but the thought that alot of the people that were in there with me were taking that combo made me really upset...SO DONT TAKE SLEEPING PILLS lol...there that is my lesson for today haha....anyway write me back let me know how you are...you sound like you are doing alot better!!! make sure your man keeps on taking good care of you!! much luv

Krista,
Hey girl! Tell me why I am going through Grey's withdrawl? It's been two whole weeks, this is driving me crazy~ All of my shows, except the ones on MTV are all re-runs! I have not had much to watch all week, it was kind of depressing and boring. But anywho...
How are you? Thank you for the f.y.i about the sleeping pills along with xanax. I have questioned whether or not you could take both. I haven't, at least I don't think I have. I used to take "sleepy time" by Tylenol (please excuse me if the spelling is wrong). That would just knock me out for about 5 hours then I would wake up. The xanax does the same, but I have no trouble falling back to sleep. I swear I wake up at 3 a.m. every morning. My body just wakes up. I wonder why that is? This anxiety stuff is for the birds. I just want to be normal.
I hope you had a better week than me. My sweetie and I have been arguing all freak'n week. He is really stressed and sometimes he tends to take his misfortune out on me. He will start an argument over something really stupid or say something really smartass to me. I am Italian, so I have a short fuse. I am not afraid to stand up for myself when it comes to him. I won't back down if I think I am right. And he is like 6'5 about 210 lbs. and I am 5'5 about 125 lbs. Twice my size... It's actually quite funny sometimes.
How are you and your sweetie? I hope everything is going good! If you don't mind me asking but what is chronic fatigue syndrome? Like doing everyday tasks tire you out faster and easier? I hope it's not too serious.
Spring is on its way...SMILE!
Much love and many hugs)))
