having some medical issues that I am having looked at that have been going on for about 3 months now- possible anemia as I have been having dizzy spells pretty much everyday I have attempted to go to work in the past 2 weeks (my last shift I actually completed was 9/17). Luckily I have made a private booking to see a dietian in just over a week on my way to work (their first appointment free) so hopefully when that is cleared up my scrappy mojo will appear again & I will feel like scrapping again.

Oh that's no good Jennifer! I hope the dietician can give you some answers and you will be feeling like your normal self again soon!

Hopefully a blood test will give you an answer quick smart. It's no fun having no energy (and no mojo). Hope you get it sorted soon Jennifer.

I've been really lucky that work has been somewhat ok about it but at a certain point I worry that my hours will decrease.

The trickiest thing of all was trying to find a dietian even privately where I didn't have to wait too long and it was a place I could get to which is essential when you dont drive

I hope you get it figured out ... hopefully it is something easy to fix. Here's hoping they pinpoint it right away and you can get back on the right road to feeling better. Mojo always disappears for me when I'm not feeling good.

my family have sort of narrowed it down to two or three things they think it could be - low iron, lactic acid intolerence & cases of heartburn to top it all off

Things have taken I guess a more positive turn at work where I am given personal leave until October 12th

Looks like I may need to give notice to work to quit my job due to health reasons - they haven't demanded it but have made strong suggestions about it. I really don't want to give notice but the dr says it could be another month before I am fully up and running again. I am hoping now that I will be doing nursing next year that if I do give notice that I can do some volunteer work in the hospitals of some kind.

Jennifer, I'm so sorry you're still unwell! If your work can't understand, then it's probably time to quit anyway, it's not like you can help it! I hope it all works out, and you feel better soon!
