How Things Have Been

Good News: The root canal went fine.

Bad News: Later that evening I got a headache. That headache turned into a migraine by yesterday. I was throwing up most of the day, and finally went to bed at 7 PM.

Also, I got my test results back from the doctor. I'm slightly anemic, with a 10.3 for the iron level. It's supposed to be 11-14. I'm back on the iron pills.

Apparently, the doctor tested for everything when she did the blood test. She sent a print out of all the test results. Other than the anemia, I don't have any other problems.

Oooo ... being anemic sucks! My dad had some trouble with that, and it made him feel awful!

I've been anemic before, too. Never good when it's 2.0. (Yes, it actually went that low--I shouldn't have been able to walk, but I did.)

That's strange. overhere (The Netherlands) Iron levels are measured differently. Mine is around 9.5 every month (checked during plasmapheresis) and that's fine
