I've been dealing with a lot of physical health issues and have been mildly depressed. My anemia had gotten worse and I needed blood transfusions every month. They have been giving me injections for it and they have started working (I haven't need a blood transfusion in over two months). The doctor's thought I had blood cancer and sent me to an oncologist. She did a skeletal scan and a bone marrow biopsy, which turned out negative for blood cancer.
The doctors also thought I was bleeding internally. The gastrointestinal did a colonoscopy, an endoscopy and a test where I had to drink some barium liquid and they did quite a few ex-rays. The only thing found were precancerous polyps.
Last week I had a hypomanic episode, which lasted a few days. I felt great and did a lot of things, some I haven't been able to do for months. It finally exhausted me and I couldn't do anything for a few days. Even getting out of bed was difficult. I've bouncing around up and down. That reminds me of a Chubby Checker song.

Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.

Hope everything levels out for you and that you find relief and consistency.
