I'm 27 weeks today and have been very well so far, no sickness or any complaints but this last week or so I'm absolutely exhausted. My whole body feels exhausted and I've been very lightheaded too, my heart starts racing and I can feel it in my throat even if I'm sitting doing nothing.
I went to the doctor on Thursday and she thought I might be anaemic so did bloods and sent them off so we'd get results before the bank hol weekend. She text me that evening to say I'm not anaemic but will know more when she gets the results. I rang on Friday but they weren't in so now I've to wait until Tuesday/Wednesday.
I've been off work since Thursday and resting up, I was making the dinner today and I got all lightheaded and very hot like I was going to faint.
Has anyone had this or know what it might be? I can't understand how I've been so well up to now and then this comes on all of a sudden. I was sure the test would come back as anaemic, I'd be on iron and then I'd be fine but now I'm just confused :-(
