I slept a lot last night and yet I needed 2 (!) naps during the day. After the 2nd nap, I was completely refreshed. I did productive work and went to an Orangetheory fitness workout where I accumulated 12 "splat points" or the minimum number of high intensity minutes.
I spoke to my psychiatrist about trying Ritalin PRN. I will also see my internist on Friday for the annual physical and I will ask her about iron transfusions. On my own, I am not making progress fast enough.
I hope that I can tolerate Ritalin. I will let you know how it goes.
