I've been taking the iron pills for a couple of days now and I think that they may, already, be helping! I was able to do my cleaning chores and take out the garbage without having that fatigue feeling as much. Yeah. I just realized I walked to the dumpster and back without feeling like I was going to collapse or something. Sweet! I texted my husband and told him we'd be taking walks in no time! 😊

I'm still pissed that for TWO YEARS no one took me seriously. Everyone was just like, "You need to exercise! That's the best way to fight fatigue!" Dude, I feel like I'm going to die walking from the car into a store! I CAN'T exercise. And then I brought it up to a doctor once and he dismissed me and was just like, "It's the seroquel you're on! That's making you tired!" Dude! It's not that kind of tired! It's the fatigue you feel after running ten miles.

I did it to myself too. My diet made/is making me sick because I don't eat beef, poultry, or seafood, and I don't like any of the vegetarian food (like spinach or lentils 🤢 ) that have iron.

TMI? Nah. No such thing on this board. Lol.

Sorry to hear about the invega shot. I took an invega pill while manic and in the hospital once and hated the way it made me feel. It made me feel very slow and cloudy (if cloudy makes any sense!).
