    Hola seniors & senoras

    whoop whop, just booked me a trip to Playa Blanca in Lanzarote leaving Sunday :j

    Now to work out what I can fit in my 5kg allowance (love travelling with just hand luggage).

    Last time I did this I wore most of my clothes on the flight there and back to save weight :D

    I love this. How long are you going forand how many layers are you going in??? Your post made me lol out loud!

    that pretty much sums me up, I'm one rolling ball of tiredness and most of the time when I wake up it doesn't feel like I've been to sleep :o It's not even so much muscle soreness, just a feeling like you couldn't physically move if your life depended on it!

    It's not like I'm not active though. I walk to and from work which is 2.5 miles a day and when I'm at work I'm on my feet the whole time rushing about easily doing 10000 steps in a shift some days. Must admit I have wondered about my thyroid in the past but I'm not very good at asking the doctor about these kind of things too self conscious to question them :o

    LFAB if you have an idea what it might be please voice it to the doctor, remember they are seeing you for a max of 10 minutes and some are not very good at putting two and two together after all it is only a blood test and if nothing else will either rule it out or in:)

    I did chuckle at that last night! Who's your money on?

    I'm working this evening so won't be home til half 8 so I'm going to miss it. It'll be radio silence on my way home and straight onto the laptop to watch :rotfl:

    I've seen my gp a lot the last year or so but because I struggle in other ways it gets put down to that. I have questioned it before but never get anywhere so I've kind of given up a bit :o and just try to keep going. I do wish I was brave enough to push more but it's just not me unfortunately.

    The younger newly qualified docs are very good at this, looking at the basics

    also worth asking for an iron test - I had no idea I was low until I went to give blood one August - I was eating very well, no tiredess - but it was a really hot summer and I think this had something to do with it
