That's good news MsMcD
As Scully says - shift working can really mess your body up even if you're on nights all the time. It can reduce absorption of vital nutrients which might then cause other symptoms and conditions.
Whatever it is, I hope they get to the bottom of it for you and perhaps it will be treatable or even better - curable!
Skully, I have heard of shiftwork disorder, but I didn't know what it entailed. I didn't know that it caused elevated lymphocytes. I'm going to mention this to my doctors. I do have a sleep related disorder that I'm supposed to be using CPAP for. The doctor has, also, given me Provigil--My sleep disorder doctor (pulmonologist). I haven't went in to see him in about a year and a half. Maybe, he's the one that can fix this problem???
Thanks for the information.
I have to go to work now....
