I don’t feel non-drugged until well after 6 PM. I’m sleeping very well. I even tried caffeine pills and even caffeine doesn’t budge the “just come to under general anesthesia” feeling. I’ve been under before, and that retch-y feeling is the same. People have also noticed that I’m moving slowly. I don’t drink alcohol, so this isn’t a hangover. It started rather gradually but is getting worse.

Someone suggested it could be low b12, but I’ve been having the sublingual spray for months and there’s no improvement.

Am I just getting old and this is something I’m gonna have to put up with for the rest of my life?

    It’s not normal ageing, unless you meant like 92. Have you mentioned how bad it is to a doctor? Been sick lately?

        Okay. Insist that they keep running other tests until they find what’s not normal, because the symptoms you’re describing could also be warnings that something worse is coming (without treatment). Be persistent! Early detection can make a tremendous difference!

        Consider visiting specialists. For example, a neurologist might be able to identify your issue very quickly. The whole body is a complex system, but the brain/nervous system alone is capable of some especially weird shit.

        Assorted “post infection” bullshit is not uncommon, if that’s the kind of sick you were. Certain infections have certain sequelae. Your doc is aware of the history, right?

        That means literally nothing. They ran the most basic test and didn’t do the other 1,259,649,693 tests.
