Something is wrong with me.

Or maybe somethings are wrong.

Ok, this is weird but lately I’ve had some discomfort when sitting. I can feel my tailbone dig in to whatever I’m sitting on and it feels like it’s sticking out much more than it should. I never used to feel it when sitting. I wondered if it’s maybe because I’ve lost weight and I don’t have as much “padding” back there but people don’t usually have this problem, do they?? So I was looking it up on the internet and found a site that gave lots of possibilities, one being a spur on the coccyx which actually sounds closest to what it could be. So I have a dr. appt. Monday and I’ve just been sitting on a pillow while I work. But it just feels SO WEIRD.

But my bigger concern is that the other day I had a pretty extreme spell of something where I couldn’t really move, my heart was beating hard, I was clammy and my hands were shaking. I had to EAT and I didn’t stop shaking for a good hour after I ate. I’ve had this before but never this severe. I get shaky when I don’t eat in like 4-5 hours but this came on SO quick I’m just glad Daddy was home so he could fix me a quick lunch. So, again, I was looking this up on the internet and it really sounds like a blood sugar problem. Diabetes runs in my family, I had gestational diabetes with both pregnancies…I just have a higher chance of getting it (like over 40%). Also, my weight keeps dropping (under 135 now) which is also a symptom (I don’t eat very well, I eat a LOT and I don’t exercise, yet the weight just drops)…but it’s a symptom of Type 1 diabetes, not Type 2 which is what I’m most likely to get. Do you think it’s possible that I’ve had it for a long time without knowing it? I was talking to my mom and she remembers me having to pee OFTEN when I was a kid and I always remember having a kind of weak feeling and where I felt I just had to have some sugar. I just think I would have found out by now but maybe it’s just getting worse. 

That’s the main reason I made the dr. appt but the tailbone thing is a problem as well. WTH? I feel like I got like 40 years older in the last two weeks.
