This week feels like it has been pretty full on for me and a lot has been happening. On Tuesday I had an appointment with some people about my M.E, seeing what they can do to help me with managing it better. One thing they mentioned is about going to see a medical specialist to just go over things and make sure nothing has got missed when I got diagnosed. When diagnosing M.E one of the only things they can do is to rule out everything else. So it will be good knowing that everything has been done that can be done. I am a little bit nervous about going though as I am unsure what will happen and what they will say. I always get anxious at those sort of things though and it always turns out ok so I’m sure it will be fine. That’s what I’m telling myself anyway.
I also met up with a friend for lunch this week and we spent some time in town catching up. I really enjoyed it but my body definitely paid for it the next day. I was feeling sore and like a zombie and the fact that I had to go to work didn’t help me rest and feel better. I was able to take my time at work though which was really good. I was at work for about one hour and by the end of it I was starting to feel really zoned out and not able to think or concentrate properly. A few symptoms have been coming back this week telling me that I need to slow down a bit but I still find it hard with knowing when I need to stop and rest as I still want to do things and have a life.
Today I’m planning on resting until I have work tonight. Friday night and the weekend is usually busy for me with work and recovering from work so I know I need all the energy I can get. I hope you all had a good week and I would love to hear what you got up to.
Love, Me

I’m sorry that I keep forgetting that ME stands for your pain. When I see those letters I see initials of an author. Or ME! (You…ironically). I will re-read what ME is. I know I didn’t understand.

I am curious about what kind of specialist you are going to see. I keep feeling like the doctors I’ve been to really have no idea.
And please be careful about getting too fatigued. A quiet weekend might be what you need too avoid a huge crash. Sometimes, well can be very very dangerous.

I got diagnosed by my GP and back when I first got sick he sent me to see a general medical specialist but they couldn’t see me within the time frame so sent me back to my GP. This time around I think it is going to be a general medical specialist again. It is being organized for me and will be the first doctor I have seen in regard to my M.E apart from my GP. I have heard that a lot of doctors aren’t very helpful which is a shame.
