Just diagnosed with minor
I have just been diagnosed with thal minor and I feel like so much now makes sense.
I was (mis)diagnosed with anaemia when younger, due to dizzy spells which I still sometimes suffer with.
And despite being a very sporty kid, I now suffer with extreme fatigue and difficulty getting out of bed in the morning.
I have also always been absolutely destroyed by the flu/colds which always last for weeks, with much harsher symptoms than the other people around me. Is this a confirmed issue with thal minor?
I've also read posts here about brain fog. This is something I relate to deeply. My memory is terrible and I'm constantly confused and unable to find the words that I'm looking for. I attributed this to ADHD but could it be a thal symptom?
I'm also short, which comes from my mother who in hindsight almost certainly has the same issue. There seems to be a lack of consensus on whether thal minor contributes to height/development issues.
Anyway, just a post to say that it's all clicking into place. Any comments or advice on treatments would be welcome too.
