tired but jumpy... i think i'm anemic


Question Posted Sunday June 27 2010, 1:43 am

i think i'm anemic, ("think" meaning i have all the symptoms, just haven't been properly diagnosed) so i'm tired all the time. seriously, the only time i'm NOT complaining about being tired is when i'm asleep. then no matter how much sleep i get, still tired. but thats not what my question is about.

my question is about the fact that i'm tired all the time, but i'm very jumpy and twitchy. like i'll be sitting on the ground and my legs will be bouncing, or when i'm sitting anywhere, any way, my leg will be bouncing. i try to stop but it feels like i need to. and then if they're not moving, my hands are playing with something; my hair, my fingers, my clothes, a pencil, paper, etc. or i'll be moving around in my chair. anyone know why this is? anyone who sees this might think i have infinite energy, but its the exact opposite.

I suffered for about 4 years with extreme tiredness and other odd symptoms before my doctor did a blood test and found out I had vitamin b12 deficiency. He put me on shots of b12 and I improved quite quickly.
B12 deficiency causes nerve damage if left untreated,and that can account for the twitching you are experience. Doctors check for iron anemia but not always b12,go and get checked as soon as possible before there is ireversable damage.

In order to determine if you are anemic, you will need a blood test and therefore it is essential you visit your doctor. He/she is the only person who can give you a correct diagnosis, we cannot diagnose you over the internet. Your symptoms could be indications of any number of conditions and it's important you see a professional who can assess you properly.
