Wasn’t my stomach so Dr isn’t sure why but anyway I said I’ll try foods she said I can but most likely will have to talk about infusion. I read about this and what I read seems the side affects can be similar or worse than the supplements. Do you know if that’s true?

What I’m doing is still trying to stay cool. I hate being hot. Well that kind at least. I’m also giving the furnace thingy a good kick/bump/ even a please....every now and then like that’s going to do anything. It’s a quiet night here. Everyone is mellow and quiet.

Making a small list for the grocery. Trying hard not to be indecisive. Along with trying hard not to worry. Oh, and trying to decide what day I should go to the Barber.

I've had low iron for more than 20 years. It gets low enough to meet the criteria for iron deficient anemia. I tried supplements ordered by my primary care physician about 10 years ago but they (the supplements) bothered my stomach. My primary referred me to a hematologist who agreed my iron was low enough, so I had infusions. Back then it was a series of 12 or more. Now, they have medication so it just takes 2. We've been watching my iron drop for the past few years and had to wait long enough for my primary to refer me to a hematologist again. I'm already seeing the effects after one infusion. dee says I have more color in my face. I have more energy too. No side effects at all in my case. It's basically sitting in a chair for 30-60 min and having an IV administered (think blood donation in reverse). Easy peasy lemon squeezy. Give it a try and NEVER ignore your health (says the person who usually refuses to take care of herself).

Taking a break at work. It's my California besties birthday this week and I'm wrapping a couple gifts I got for her. She's sweet, fun, and just an all around good person.

Checking emails, still looking for full time employment (work part time now), it is so damn cutthroat here. Maybe, I need to find something to lift My mood and not add to the current one. bah.
