But at least I’ve figured out the cause. I’m anemic. But perhaps I have not been taking as many iron pills as I need to. I need to take 2 325 mg pills a day. I may have only been taking one a day, which would explain the ickiness. The most disconcerting feeling about the ...Read more.

So the job called the other day after my last post. I was taking my mid afternoon siesta and I guess they caught me off guard. We set my return to work date at Feb 12th. Which I guess in the grand scheme that is not too bad, probably most SAH patients are returning at ...Read more.
