Well, I knew it wasn't supposed to be that way

After a year of feeling tired and run down, irritable and depressed, I finally went to the doctor. She, James, and I all suspected depression, but wanted to rule out medical issues first. After 6 vials of blood were collected we were sent on our way. The doctor called last weekend to inform me that my vitamin b12 was low. After almost a week of supplements, I feel tons better. Who knew that a lack of b12 could make one tired, grumpy, and depressed-- among other things. I was sleeping about 9-10 hours a day and sometimes taking a nap and still feeling tired. What a difference. I feel fantastic. The 'high' has worn off a little, but I still am so much better than a week ago.
