Struggles

I actually was diagnosed at the Mayo Clinic in Arizona with my Alexi in August of 2014. It sounded like an alien name but was extremely happy I finally had a name for what was going on. I have done pretty good with my emotional check list until recently, it seems like every time I turned around in the last two weeks I was having either seizures or feeling so tired I couldn't keep eyes open. Thanks to FMLA other wise I wouldn't have a job. I am guessing having a persistent cold and too many things going on at the same time has gotten me down. Today I actually am feeling a bit better and hopefully can return to work on Monday. Anybody have those extended periods of Alexithemia problems that you can't figure what is triggering you?

I had allergies a lot, but allergy skin tests wouldn't go higher than "2" which is mild. Yet my throat would swell shut sometimes.
