I have been feeling so tired and out of energy in the evenings. This has been going on for a while now.
I stopped going to the gym at 8 because I was too tired. then jeff and I have been walking around our neighborhood after dinner, and that has become a chore to get myself to do this. every few days I actually lay down and nap after our walk. WE were at a concert last night and I could not stay still I had a lot of pent up energy but was tired. The other night I almost fell asleep at another concert that we went to. My meds have not changed, I have been eating like this , no changes there. I eat the same for lunch as I do dinner.
I spoke with a woman at the health food store tammie she said that my adrenals were depleted.
I have not researched what that all means.
Does anyone know anything about this in general?
thanks bizi

I am 49 years old and am starting to go thru menopause.
last month I had two cycles in one month, hated that. Maybe this is jsut part of that process. I think that I have not been eating enough at dinner time too. Snacking alot doesn't help a diet though.

Same symptoms as my thyroid diax Bizi.

Have you had the thyroid checked? I believe you said they had.THe exhaustion is a pain in the butt. Total wipeout comes on.

When ds had adrenal gland failure, the steroids /epidurals.....pain shots. made his bodyadrenal gland) stop producing the adrenialyn, it was being fooled by his epidural spine injections steroids. He was OD'd on steroid.
Face was bright red, flushed bad, ephuria, laughing at stupid things, no reason for laughing.

I hope something has you feeling back to normal again.

Bizi,

Ask a gyn to do a hormone workup. If the mdoc finds anything, he or she can offer suggestions.

I had saliva testing done when I first started having symptoms last year with the rosacea, my hormones were fine.
But maybe they have changed since then. It has been awhile since I had my thyroid checked maybe I should ask my pdoc to write me orders.
I have had an increased amount of stress from my business being slow, financial stress....that is contributing. I don't have motivation to do much which has been going on for a long while.
