I finally called the doctor's office this morning. She didn't have an opening until Dec 29. Well, I said a little prayer that if this needed quicker attention, things would work out. When we returned from the grocery store, we noticed that the doctor's office had called back. She had a cancellation tomorrow and wondered if I could come in then! So hopefully we'll get some blood tests done and find out what this is about.

I wouldn't be surprised if my potassium's low. As for dehydration, I drink water constantly. By this time of the day, for example, I've had about 5 full glasses. I'm always thirsty, constantly drinking water - then constantly leaking it back out again! (and my blood sugar is perfect, so it's not that).

Anyway, it was a relief to get that appointment so soon. I'm barely functioning here.
