Unproductive days

I have been feeling lightheaded on and off recently which I attribute to hypoglecemia. That is exacerbated by occasional hypotension related to peritoneal dialysis. I was advised by the doctor to stop taking amlodipine, the medicine to control my hypertension.

Nevertheless, the convergence of these two symptoms in the past few days have made me listless. The current hot spell is not helping either. I cooped myself up in the bedroom with the air-conditioner at full blast almost the whole of yesterday.

I had to drag myself out of bed today because I felt that the more I slept the more listless I would become. Even then, I have not been able to do much. Hopefully, this will go away soon and not symptoms of something more serious.
