I'm know I'm not anemic because the CBC with differential I had done a couple of weeks ago came back normal.
I've never taken iron. I may be deficient even if I'm not anemic. I'll ask my PCP about it.
The only vitamins I take are B12 and vitamin D (as D3). They're both usually low in MS patients and have to be supplemented. Both levels were normal.

This all fits the usual MS pattern. For some reason it's just worse for the time being.

I have an appointment with my neurologist next month, but there's no point in moving it up. There's nothing he can do. There are meds they use to treat MS fatigue, but they're all stimulants. I tried them years ago and they made me go nuts. I can't take them.

This is just a part of MS. For most people (including me) it's the worst symptom. I'm not really looking for answers. I'm just venting because I feel really ******.
