Sigh (/bleagh)

So, I'm dealing with fatigue and depression. About three days after my last treatment that might help the fatigue... I find that I'm sick. Friday I felt like crap; Saturday, I stayed in bed 80+% of the time and learned that the Harry Potter books are good, light reading (hadn't read any of 'em until now). Sunday, the same, but I went out for chinese food to get protein and vegetables in my system. Today, the same, but I went to Target so I could finally brush my teeth with actual *toothpaste* (rather than baking soda - a decent emergency substitute, especially if you follow up with a fluoride rinse), and other necessities.

I'm really (scary thought) hoping I can get to work tomorrow.

Well, I know that I have a fatigue problem. I also know I have to be careful about depression. But that's what I meant - I got sick, which caused me to feel awfully fatigued, just when my medicine should have been fixing it. So, it wasn't that my meds weren't working - it was that I had something else to make me feel awful.

Now, I think everything's stabilized. I hope so.
