Food & Tiredness

[Lockhart]

Heh All,

Some of you will have read my new to thread last week and will have seen why my lovely GPm did. For those that didn't he reduced my meds and I have been set back.

I actually want to talk about food and tiredness. I am actually quite good with my eating .... ok we all have our naughty days but heh I am human :lol: Any how I dont eat dairy, wheat or gluten and I drink as much green tea as My system allows.

But here's the thing. I use to lov my breakfast but now I cant face anything bar Green Tea before 11am. I think a mouse has a bigger appetite then I do and the tiredness when i come in from work is incredible. I am 31 and I think I'm in bed before most children go to bed. How do other people find it.

But on the bright side of things now that my meds are back up I am starting to notice a huge difference!! YEA ME!!!!!!:ylol2:

Ohmygoodness, I am like the tiredest person alive just now. I pretty much fall asleep at my desk from 3pm onwards, fall asleep in the car on the way home from work and am on the couch with my duvet by 8pm. I am still waiting on a diagnosis so am hoping this may improve but certainly don't have much of a life due to the tiredness just now

Heh Caz,

Yes that sounds like me. And I feel for himself big time but he is so good with me and looks after me and understands how the Crohn's is effecting me. I love my food so I am finding it difficult with the way things are. But when the silly GP reduced my meds it got to a stage where I was afraid to eat. You wouldn't think looking at me but now my meds are back up food isn't as scary. I am staying away from what I shouldn't eat but as I said at least I can have something sma;; for my lunch and dinner. I hope my breakfast wont stay away too long.

I am with you on the breakfast stuff, I always struggle with that as that is when I feel my worst Glad you can eat ok the rest of the time though, good news. I always make myself have lunch as I wouldn't get through my day at work otherwise but never have a big dinner. I hope one day I can feel normal again!

Oh Caz you will do. Its just a matter of getting everything sorted out, the right meds and food. I dont eaty huge dinners or lunch just enough to take the hunger off. Other wise my stomach just gets so sick. I really just drink green tea between meals just to get something into me and also its important to drink as much wter as possible.
