These days I feel like a 60 year old lady. Of course, dad always likes to call me “20 years old buddhi” 😀 [That was sometime back!!! Of course, I have aged and I am not getting any younger :(] I don’t know why but since 2-3 days, I have this pain in the back muscles of my thighs and almost a constant headache in the back of my head (not the forehead). I really don’t want to take medicines but seems like my headache won’t leave me without a pill.
Have you gone through any similar state before? Any ideas?

May 6, 2012 at 7:33 PMHi! I can understand how you feel because I started feeling this way some time back. Shortly after this feeling of fatigue, I started falling ill with something or the other and my body started reacting weirdly too.I kept running in and out of hospitals. I had to. Finally, I decided enough was enough and decided to take things in my own hands. Started taking lots of fresh fruit juices, eating vegetables, stopped all junk food, oil, fried, sugar etc. Also joined the gym and started working out under the help of a trainer. it was all very hard at first. I started having migraines and energy slackened at first but now things are picking up. get yourself check. check your haemoglobin, vitamin d levels. are you drinking enough water and eating well? get some tests run and you will come to the bottom of it.

May 7, 2012 at 7:24 PMyou take good juices, coconut water, grape juice , pineapple juice..invest in an juicer. make it a point to wake up in the morning before work, so you have some time for your body. drink four glasses water, make the juice, have it, then half hour later start your day with a good breakfast. that takes care of your day time energy needs. try to get some workout even if at home, like on the spot marching or walking up and down, taking stairs..somethign simple to start out with. slowly…do everything gradually. but breakfast , juices, start from tomorrow. take care of your health, Swati. it’s very important. i have been down that lane, that’s why i am advising you now with so much fervour. you will feel good. it might take a month or two to get your stamina back but you will. trust me.

From what you say, I think you should immediately see a doctor for a complete check up. Not everything can be cured on your own . So, leave it to the experts.
Get well soon dear
Swati Murti says
May 6, 2012 at 9:09 PMthanks Nivs 🙂 its just that I don’t wanna go to a doc 🙁 have an aversion and, worst of all, I don’t know about any reliable doc in Hyderabad. I guess its my eating habits which is actually taking a toll on me 🙁 but, will have to ask for references to docs now!!!

May 7, 2012 at 5:51 AMswati for doz cramps start taking Bcomplex tabs. this vl relieve cramps instantly. cramps were a major issue wid me specially in winters. Doc prescribed me EvionLC for cramps and i was healthy again
Swati Murti says
May 7, 2012 at 5:57 AMoh great, Vanu!!! I am already taking cobadex which is B complex tablets and I have evion too so will start taking them from today. my thighs are hurting real bad. and, somewhere yesterday, I saw that deficiency of vitamins can actually accelerate aging and make the body really painful 🙁
I am already planning on working out but its so painful that I can’t move from my bed right now.

May 7, 2012 at 4:22 AMGet a checkup done Swati… if u dont want to feel the stress of visting a hospital/doc,
take a visit to Beams, jublee hills… If you are comining from Madhapur, take a left at Jublee check post towards Ameerpet.. it’s located on the left
Eat well… A walk of 30 mins in the park makes a lot of difference…but i know how difficult it is bringing ourselves to doing that
Try to spend less time before the system
I know am sounding silly saying this 🙂 … I believe you have done good research on EOs… still just chk out if anything is giving u a problem… I feel u are using too many at one go.
Take care!
Swati Murti says
May 7, 2012 at 5:11 AMthanks Padmaja…nah, its not due to EO’s…its actually my health!!! you can say that I have literally starved myself for over a year and now, I am really feeling the effects 🙁 I can’t even get up now in the morning, my thighs are giving me such trouble!!!
and, of course, I do need to work out!!! my body is literally getting no exercise. but, yes, will check up on EO’s too 😀
Padmaja says

Swati Murti says

May 7, 2012 at 6:14 PMEnsure is also good.. take a multivitamin+mineral rather than only E and B..
Swati Murti says
May 8, 2012 at 7:28 AMwill consult the doc regd that 🙂 don’t wanna take supplements without any prescription. and, yes, its actually better to get multi-vitamin.
Padmaja says
May 7, 2012 at 12:54 PMDon’t want to scare u… but consult your doc before u start taking vitamin E suppplement…
How much ever vitamin E u splash on your skin, it’s gud for it… But taking vitamin E internally should be done with discresion…
this is as per my knowledge … I may be wrong…. just wanted to share 🙂
Swati Murti says
May 7, 2012 at 1:37 PMactually you are right 🙂 I am myself against taking any supplements but mom had said that she had taken evion for her leg pains and everything and its pretty safe!!! but, yeah, any supplement should be taken only with doc’s advise 🙂 excess of vitamins are also harmful!!! gosh, what life????
