lately I’ve been having trouble, with dizziness, fainting (or feeling like it) fatigue, and shaking. The Fatigue and Shaking I though was because of swimming, being tired and chilled after swim. the dizziness and faintish feelings I was told was normal to some extent.

well I just took a 5 week break and all this stuff was the same. so I told my mom and when to the doctor. he doagnosed me with Hypoglyemia. I know what it is and what it requires to keep it in check, but its going to take me some time to get used to it and make me feel better.

today at swim practice I feel sleepy and shakey but I didn’t say anything to him or my parents yet.

my question is. What do I need to tell him? I will tell him because i have lots of swim meet and he needs to right it on my physical for school. I have a lot of problems already. and the list keeps growing

blindness (really)
bad back and neck
weak ankels
bad shoulder
tenis elbows
and…

now Hypoglycemia
okay question is WHAT do I need to tell my coach? I was cleared to swim and everything he just told me to take it a little easier for a while. I just don’t know how I should approach it.

I have REALLY big meets comming up and I need to train. I mean Paralympic trails big.

and my doctor said that the faintish stuff was most likily from somthing else I don’t know the name of it. but it has to do with standing up to fast. and your blood not pumping fast enough to your brain. he said it won’t hurt me in the long run. just go a little slower when you make sudden changes in body possion. the only problems in swimming I’ve ever had is going from a belly stroke to backstroke. but that’s it. and I don’t swim IM’s

I’ve started to experience pain in my left elbow when I bend it inward towards my body, but the weird thing is, I don’t even use it when I play tennis. I have a one-handed forehand and a one-handed backhand, both using my right hand. I’ve never experienced any pain before in my right elbow, but I’ve been experiencing pain in my left elbow for some reason. I play everyday for about 2-3 hours, so maybe fatigue? Not sure…

Can anyone help?
I don’t garden, haha x]
