Tired and nauseous, mostly. And the thing about the nausea, I know it's because I haven't eaten - but do you have any idea how hard it is to convince yourself to eat when you feel sick? *sighs*
Yeah. I'm hypoglycemic, and the last thing I want to do when I've crashed is eat. Of course, if I don't eat, the throwing-up and shaking things start, and I know this... but my brain chemistry is already messed up by the crash, so I don't care, because maybe it won't happen this time...
Or, in short, yeah, it's a bitch to convince yourself to eat. Hope you manage to do so anyway!
I hate the times when I think to myself, "I must be feeling sick because I'm hungry," and then I eat, and then it turns out that no, I really did have the flu.
Is "nauseous" or "nauseated" the proper term? Some people get irritable over the wrong one. One of my best friends always used to correct me.. and I still can't remember the right one.
If you're nauseous, you make other people sick; if you're nauseated, you're sick. My ex always used to correct me on that one - I usually informed him he was right: I wasn't nauseous, he was...
I know all too well. I get weird stomach issues, and when I don't eat RIGHT when I get hungry, my stomach turns to an acidic grump. Then, of course, I'm no longer "hugry" and furthermore cannot stand the thought of food. Vicious cycle...and it needs to end.
I'll be discussing this again with my doctor tomorrow, along with other issues. (Physically childfree, anyone? Hopefully she won't give me a runaround.)
