for anyone who makes it all the way through, thanks in advance.i'll try to hit the highlights only, i'm going to see my physician tomorrow, he was sick yesterday and today. this is just bugging the tar out of me.
now, the situation: flew back from overseas a few weeks ago, got back to the states on 5feb. over a 43hr period i had 3 hrs of poor sleep, on the plane, and was flying for 22 hrs. going over i slept on the plane fine, ate and drank fine, no jetlag going over. got home at noon on sun so i didn't want to sleep in the middle of the day so i stayed up till 7pm. woke up about 3am mon morn with cold shivers, sweating heavy, pounding headache. didn't get back to sleep till about 4am then slept till 9:30ish. woke to same conditions as 3am. figured it was dehydration so drank a lot of water throughout the day, ate well, had a headache and no energy all day. didn't leave the house, to sick.
went to bed about 9pm, woke up at 3am, same symptoms as the day prior. fell back asleep till about 5:30am, got up and went to the store to get some gatorade and orange juice. made it out of the house for few errands but came back feeling very fatigued. oh yeah, tue morn when i got up i felt like i'd been beat with a bat, i was sore all over. didn't eat much that day.
another reoccuring symptom all week is a feeling like my equilibrium is messed up. if i move my head real fast it's like 'whoa', it's not bad enough i'm going to fall over, but it's not right.
wed was better, but still had a little headache. was hoping to get a bike ride or swim in but still not close to 100% so figured i better give it one more day. ate and drank well.
thur was still better but still not good enough to workout. each day i'm still fatigued, and on occasion have rumblings in my stomach. mostly noise, no side affects(if you know what i mean.)
fri i'm still not good enough to workout, but it's the best i've felt all week. all i've drank all week is water, milk, o.j., gatorade. (there's significance to this)
sat i wake feeling slightly nauseous. which i've had occasional nauseous feelings all week. equilibrium still not right. for the last 2 days or so as the day goes on i feel better, but not great.
i have a coffee sun morn, (here is that significant thing to me.) that afternoon i feel the worst i've felt over the last 3 days or so. i put in a long day so by the time i go to bed sun nite i feel pretty crummy. mon morn don't feel great, but not tooooo bad. no coffee today.
tue morn don't feel to bad, still not 100% at all but i think i'm going to go for a short spin on my bike. it's hard to get moving but once i do i generally feel better.
again if you've made it this far thank you so much. and if you have made it this far any opinions? i've been dehydrated before, from exercise though, and after a few days i was back up and running. i think it's been more than dehydration and i'm going to the dr wed to have blood taken but was hoping for a professional opinion. the weather in north tx has been great and it's killing me not being able to get out on my bike.
thank you
