What did I miss??

Ugh Bobby just went back to Good Sam because I'm an airhead and left my phone in the room. Last week I was feeling really tired and weak and then I got really dizzy. It got so bad that i woke up Wednesday and felt literally like I might be dying. Well I was right. Went to my doctor and they got scared at how I looked (supposedly I looked whiter than Edward from Twilight) and I went to the ER right away. To make a long story short I had a hemoglobin count of 5.9 and normal is like 12-13 so I really was running very low on fuel ya know? 1 or 2 more days and I would have passed out they said. I got an endoscopy and colonoscopy to check for internal bleeding but luckily they only found gastritis and esophogitis. I am deficient in iron and B12 because my body doesn't absorb vitamins well after gastric bypass. Of course there's like 10% chance of being as bad as me and guess who is part of the lucky 10%??? LOL So I got 4 units of blood and now I have to go to weekly B12 shots and 3 times a week for IV of iron for quite a while so that sucks but at least I'll have my energy back. Just freaks me out how I was like shutting down. So I finally got out today! I missed everyone on here and thanks you all for the warm wishes!

p.s..Kat...you truly are like a Momma Mia!! I would text you but Bobby is still out getting the phone! LOL

OMG! I am glad you got to the hospital when you did!

I've been running low on B12 also and have been having to go monthly to my doc for shots. Its a pain in the butt so I can imagine having to go every wk.

But I hope everything will be ok from now on. Glad you are feeling better and are home now

I saw your FB status as well

Glad to hear you are recovering!!! Feel better quickly!

Hey. I'm glad your ok!!! Get rest and feel better

oh no, I'm so sorry you had to be the 10% but glad that you're back on the boards and feeling well again!
