i thought i might have had mono with that 5–6-week bout of being lightheaded and tired, but my blood tests didn’t show elevated white blood cell count. wouldn’t it show that if you have mono?
no other symptoms? no sinus/nasal/throat/respiratory stuff? I have sinus infections (far fewer since I started allergy shots) and they would flare up and shut me down. doctors would just shrug w “you must have some kind of virus causing that” and tell me to rest.
@Tiffany - sounds like booster if within the usual window. or both.
Mono lasts years, and comes and goes with no symptoms in between? And like AOF says, my blood was tested, nothing.
Could be sleep apnea, but I don’t want to believe that I have that.
Keep telling yourself that.
That wouldn’t explain the randomness, though. Or maybe it does, as I’m not a doctor, just a non-fan of someone show wasn’t a fan of some other doctor who wasn’t really a doctor of the treatments she was providing.
My dad would fall asleep while driving his car. He finally got tested & wears a cpap at night now. It’s made a world of difference in his life.
I also know that if it’s a mild-moderate case of sleep apnea, you might be able to get by wearing just an oral-appliance. It moves your lower jaw forward, thus opening the air way & reducing snoring. Side effects include sore jaw, but it’s more portable & discreet than a cpap machine…but cpap is the gold standard of treatment.
But, I wouldn’t think apnea is seasonal…but I’m also not a sleep doctor.
