Hello - I've not been on here in ages, but you always dish out good advice. 
I guess this is pretty trivial but I just feel rubbish. I've had a bad cold for 3 weeks now (which peaked last week causing me to miss work and university) and I just cant shake it. I was sent home from work on Monday after 1 hour.
I just feel totally burnt out. I'm working 2 jobs, I go to uni and am trying to learn a new language, I do charity work and an evening class and Christmas is coming up and im stressing about having no time to buy gifts for people. Job #1 has put me down to work all weekend, which means I dont actually get a day off until, erm...December 22nd. I never get time to see my boyfriend and when I do im either stressed, pissed off or tired which doesnt exactly do wonders for our relationship.
Ive just had a great big crying session spurred on by the fact that I found blood in my urine. My period ended on Saturday, and it was a normal one, so I dont know why there is blood now.
I know this is a trivial problem and I'm probably okay really - I just wanted to tell someone. I guess I'm just a worrier.

Having no day off can't be good for you, sounds like you are doing far too much to me. hugs
once i went down for 3 weeks and more or less couldnt get out of bed, i had all sorts of tests at the docs but they couldn't find anything wrong (my mum thought it might be anemia) but it turned out to be stress and i didnt even realise i was getting stressed till it came to going back to school and i literally couldn't walk through the gates
was kind of strange that i was stressed without knowing it....or my body was probably stressed and i didn't realise?
not surprised you feel a bit run down, tbh!
go for a quick chat about the blood situation with your GP, and try to chill out and rest as much as you can. it sounds a bit like your body is running on empty, but yet is being forced onwards and upwards.
No more blood today but my tummy is so sore. I just feel like throwing up. I dunno what's going on. Kaffrin - I do feel like I'm running on empty, you're right. I just have no energy. My last piece of uni work is due tomorrow (a presentation) so hopefully once that's done I'll feel a bitty better...
It's definitely worth getting checked out if the blood comes back. This link might give you some more info
Take care
