Mums with chronic fatigue. How do you manage?

Is all your other blood work ok - iron, B12? When I was pregnant these as well as the ferritin were all really low. I ended up having B12 shots and an iron infusion.
Might sound daft, but if you go back to the doctors, really push for your symptoms - I feel like doctors dismiss women a lot of the time, like somethings wrong, and as a doctor they need to help figure out what’s wrong and listen.

Hey, sorry you are going through this. I have gone through the same issues and also had low ferratin recently. Finally getting somewhere with new dr. Feel free to message me if you want to chat.

Chronic fatigue is brutal and so commonly dismissed, especially among women. Do you have the actual results for your blood test? Just so you can check as the range for iron is huge so you could have low iron but still be within the bracket that GPs view as 'normal' but normal should be treated differently for women anyway given our cycles etc!

I have POTS and hypermobility so have been having fatigue flare ups for 10 years, neither show up on bloods and only just been given a reason for it! Can't tell you how much blood the NHS have taken from me over the years and every time with no result 😂 it's super frustrating to not be taken seriously (as much as I hate it) they tend to listen better if you say "my partner has noticed this has been affecting xyz" and "my partner thinks I could be unwell with ...". Instead of "I think I have..."

I hope you get some answers and decent treatment soon! You're doing an amazing job coping with fatigue and taking care of a toddler at the same time 🩷
