Yesterday I was pretty tired and rested a lot. I intended to work all day, but was unable to concentrate and had to work in fits. My energy level was up and down throughout the early part of the day, then took a dive after lunch and stayed low. I didn't have as much mucous in my head as the previous day, but I still wasn't feeling any better.
Today I woke up and felt ok, until about 10 after I'd been on the phone for an hour (I call in for meetings now). After the meeting, I got up to get some tea and had a head rush and felt woozy. I lay on my bed for about an hour, but didn't feel any better after that. Then I had to call in for my last meeting of the day, which is two hours long. I haven't had a headache in a while now, but I've been getting one for the last hour now. I took a migraine med, but so far no effect. I'm scheduled to give my presentation any minute now. I'm so discouraged. I really want to be able to do my job and continue to work as I have for the last 8 years, but I'm getting sick so often I just can't keep up. I'm constantly playing catch up and making excuses for being late on everything. I used to pride myself on planning well and being on time, not procrastinating or doing everything at the last minute. Lately I've been lucky if I'm not more than a week late. I'm starting to wonder if it's realistic to have a job at all until my health gets a little more consistent. It's really hard for me to admit this, because having a job is usually so fun for me, and it's always been important to me. But I am having trouble keeping up with the pace, and wonder if I need to take a break until I'm really back to health full time.
