Maybe There’s More To It

I felt depressed from Sunday to the point I stopped eating. I began to feel better Wednesday and felt fine yesterday. Then I wake up today and want to cry again.

I decided to do my run any way hoping the endorphins would help. They didn’t kick in and I only managed 2.5k.

Now my watch has flashed the alert that my HRV is unusually low.

And then there’s this new bruise. No idea how I got it.

I’ve managed to get an appointment for this afternoon with a female GP so fingers crossed she listens and doesn’t fob me off like the last wanker.

My last blood test in May showed low iron and vitamin D dispite taking 320mg ferrous fumerate and 4000iu vitamin D 🤷🏼‍♀

It also should high platelet count, and raised eosinophil count, nucleated red blood count, calculated globulin and low creatinine.

When goggled most say it could be high inflammation, autoimmune or bone marrow issues 🙄

@Bleed Make her listen. Usually woman doctors are better listeners.

@Degbeme Most of the time they are. I had one gynaecologist tell me that periods aren’t that bad right before I ended up in hospital for 4 days 🤬

@Bleed Hunt that one down. 😒

With the high platelte count I'm wondering about blood clot, please get checked.
You said you'd come off the pill recently? That took me a year to get over any effects. Emotionally and physically. Go get seen by a doc x

@V00doo I was only on them for about 6 weeks. Really f*cked with my system. A year?? 😫 That would be my luck. Drs aren’t easy to get into and rarely ever listen 😞
@Bleed Ouch :/ They work straight quickly, so guess would be in your system quickly? Naybe a pharmacist? I dont know where you are but our local chemist is pretty much our first step before docs. Also, 111 are pretty decent if you cant see someone

It could be bruising from lymphedema. That leg looks swollen. You might try some compression socks that go to the knee.

2.5 k is still a good run
feel better soon 🙏🏼

After reading what @V00doo mentioned about seeing a pharmacist, do that. Woman you`re concerning.
That looks sore
Hopefully it all went well at the doctors x
@Bleed just watch who you bang into x

Do you have low platelets?
MellyMel22 · F
@Bleed I’m low too! I’m pretty sure that’s another thing that can contribute to easy bruising.

@MellyMel22 Low iron causes migraines and depression but the doctors won’t listen (even though a quick google tells you the same thing) I checked my blood test from May. I had high platelets.
MellyMel22 · F
@Bleed They won’t say my migraines are related b/c I have a genetic thing that causes serious headaches. But it’s ridiculous. They say they can’t say anything is from anything that I know is.

@StygianKohlrabi I am clumsy but can’t think of anything I did to cause this
@Bleed I stubbed my toe so badly the nail fell off so yeah I get that
