Frustrated…!

Finally got in with a GI doc in December last year but now the colonoscopy just got pushed back 3 more months… to October. Woof, I’m exhausted and have no idea what to do until then. Don’t feel hungry much lately (hunger ebbs & flows) and only know I need to eat when I start to get bad joint pain & aches. Ate a good bit today but after lunch I often get massively sleepy to the point where I can’t focus on anything. Had to call off work this afternoon and about to pass out. I’m so frustrated, tired, feeling hopeless & out of options. Lately it seems like my only two options are the pain (with some energy) or less pain with no energy. Mostly just venting but does any of this sound familiar to anyone? Gonna see my pcp next week and try for a rheumatology referral but so far no one’s found anything. MJ often helps but I’m applying for jobs right now so that’s off the table. I’m so miserable and depressed. I don’t know how I can live like this.
