Kathleen, I have a question. I'm not sure if this is due to IBS or not but I was wondering if you, along with anybody else, has had the symptoms I'm about to describe:A week ago I started feeling very, very sleepy and lightheaded. I've been sleeping a whole lot for this past week, which is not like me at all, and missed 3 days of work due to being very weak. I have what I call "episodes" that feel like someone stuck a vacuum to me and sucked out all of the energy. The other day I woke up feeling fine and got myself ready for work and sat down for a second and an episode hit. I lost all of my energy and thought I was going to fall asleep sitting up and I was also very dizzy so I called my doctor. I told her my symptoms and she told me to go straight to the ER. I could barely hold the phone to my ear because I was so weak! Anyway, when I got there they couldn't tell me anything. I explained that I had IBS and PCOS (Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome) but it didn't seem to matter to them. Then again, they hardly did any tests on me. They just took urine and blood and told me I was okay. I'm not sure what's going on with me but I'm just so tired and weak. I haven't changed my eating habits and I'm not depressed. It just hit me over night! It's very irritating because I've lost so much work and I'm actually covered in bruises from running into things (my moms cedar chest in her room, a door frame, etc. It seems I've lost my coordination, too) Could this be IBS related? And if it's not, I apologize for posting it here. I just want some answers!
