Oh... That helps you live ?

I am announcing this as the week of Anemia. I am not sure if a single person can name a week but I just did.

About 2 weeks ago I started feeling like the surgery pain was getting better but my body was getting worse. I couldn't stay awake and when I was I wanted to be sleeping. Then really bad things happened to the point that my legs were in soooo much pain and then they started buckling when I would walk. Not only couldn't I concentrate but when I moved it felt like my body moved... and then my soul and every cell I have moved a second later. That feeling is...there are no words.

I waited way to long to head to Doctor man all in the name of "This to shall pass". He ran some blood tests and I was depleted of Iron. I have always been alittle low but never really thought about it and then I lost alot of blood in surgery and let me tell you that I NEVER want to feel like that again. When I walked into the Doctor's he said "you look awful". I was so washed out looking instead of my...cute normal self.

So I started taking 2 Iron pills a day and after researching this on the computer trust me 2 is alot. Oh and who knew that Iron is what carries OXYGEN through your body? It's KIND of important so someone should have filled me in on this sooner. I mean...people DIE from this. Ok I need to stop since I am stressing out over it again as you can tell from all of the capitolized words.

Please get your Iron checked. If your tired, if your legs hurt or maybe you like having people draw your blood. Which is fine. I don't judge.

I am feeling somewhat better already but no where near 100%. My legs feel better (Go Oxygen!) I still don't have an appetite but being a woman...thats the one thing I'm not complaining about.
