So, I've been dealing with some symptoms as of late. They have gone away, and have come back. Conveniently again a few day before I am due for my period. Though I was talking to my mom and she mentioned perhaps it could be a sensitivity to the flourescent lights at my work, and that not everyone would be effected the same way. I also happen to stand on my feet all day, but this doesn't always happen. I admit, it's not always the same time every month either. So I decided to google symptoms of flourescent light snesitivity and found some interesting pages about vestibular disorder symptoms, and especially the pyshological and other symptoms section seemed to resonate with me and what I've been dealing with.
About a month ago when my symptoms were severe (and I'm afraid they're starting up again) I went to the doctor and got a bunch of blood tests done (including balance and reflexes and having my eyes and ears checked too), and I came out negative for a lot, including hormal issues and VCOS and diabetes, but not for anemia I don't think (another possibility as my symptoms get worse when standing for long periods and my mom has anemia though she doesn't think I could possibly have it too, go figure) I was just wondering if anyone else has had an experience with this personally or has known anyone who has? Here are some links to the info I've found:
