I'm exhausted.
The past days of 5/6-5/12 were horrible.
On the 6th I started getting really dizzy to the point of blacking out. Then the following days were all just going downhill for me. I felt nauseous, exhausted, and really just.. bleh during these days. I honestly didn't know what was going on with me until last Monday, so that meant a full schoolweek of being in the dark.
I knew I was sick, but I didn't know why I was sick. That unknown fact made me feel really hopeless and pathetic, and whenever I had one of those dizzy spells, I would just.. break down. Whenever I'm sick with something like the flu, I never thought much about it because I knew that there was a light at the end of the tunnel. This time, I was going in blind. The first thing I did when I had these dizzy spells was pray. If I, my parents, or the doctors can't help me, then maybe God can.
When I went to the doctors they found nothing out of the ordinary with my physical test, so they checked my blood. It reminded me that I had anemia before. The next day when we checked the blood it turns out that the iron level in my blood were really low. Unfortunately my anemia came back. People who came from third-world countries are more susceptible to having anemia because of the lack of nutrition that they receive. Symptoms of anemia are fatigue, light headedness, weakness, etc. Since I had anemia before I felt a little better with my symptoms, because I was familiar with it and whatnot.
Along with that, my eyes were being checked as well. It also turns out that my eyes do not work together at all - which added to my fatigue and dizzyness. I have to go through therapy every Saturday now ;-;
Yeah, to be honest I was pretty just down in the dumps the past few days. That's why I'm just so blessed to have friends who were incredibly supportive. Even the friends I met online were really, really nice with my sickness. Even if they may never read this I am so thankful for these people because without them I would have had a much harder time getting through it.
Obviously I'm still recovering. I have no idea how my iron levels became so low, or how my eyes started not working together, so it'll take a while for both of them to be equalized. With hard work, everybody's support & of course, Arashi ;D, I hope that I'll get better soon.
