If you have been around for a while, you know that I am not one to go to the doctor. Last week I felt terrible, I get hot then cold chills and just generally feel awful, always tired and for a few days I was sensitive to light. All the normal stuff was negative (Flu, Covid, RSV) so my doctor ordered bloodwork. He especially seemed to be concerned about autoimmune. My brother has Crohns and I have had rosacea for 18 years now.
Sorry if this is over sharing and Lord knows I have tried to limit how much I share here, (IYKYK) but I’m just wondering while I wait for the doctor to review everything, what the next likely steps are? Last week I found out that my C-Reactive protein was high and my ALT, so that had me panicked about my liver since my mother passed from liver cancer. The doctor said he wasn’t worried about those results and was waiting for additional test results to come in.
Not looking for a diagnosis but I am trying to prepare mentally for what’s coming.
