Exhausted

Back on Tuesday I had a very active day. I had a strenuous session at my rehab session, followed by a very busy workday. This is not unusual for me, as I still work and move at the speed that I had been before I got sick.

So, by that evening, I was physically exhausted. It seemed impossible to do anything but lay on the couch and watch TV. When I woke up that next morning, I felt 10 times worse. Pure, unadulterated physical exhaustion. (The 90 degree heat didn't help matters either). It is a miserable feeling that only resolved itself as the day progressed. I've been in this 'exhausted' state for three days now, with very little improvement. The symptoms are lethargy, and some serious moodiness.

At my one-year evaluation, I started to reduce my dosage of midodrine (a blood pressure medication) in an attempt to wean myself off of it. I'm guessing that these two events may be related.

As of today, I went back to my normal dosage. I feel a little better, but still will need the weekend to determine if that's the real cause.
