Hadn't had full bloodwork in four years until a couple months ago. It was then I learned I had Iron Deficiency Anemia...despite normal periods. Nurse said they see it alot in young women regardless of menstrual stuff.

That, on top of my Sleep Apnea diagnosis, really pulls it all together. I went out of town a few weeks ago---hadn't done in years--with the anxiety of not being home and being on my period. I had the energy to do all of it. And I know 100% three months ago there's no way I could have done probably any of it without multiple panic attacks (my attacks have since diminished significantly).

I hope all of you with sleep/energy issues find the answers you need. I know all too well what it's like to feel like utter **** and have no reason, even though intuition tells you something is seriously up.
