So, I finally got through to the nurse this morning. I have low iron. I'm freaking out thinking that I have days to live and I have low iron. Don't get me wrong, I am ecstatic, but, I have been on the verge of a nervous break down for two and a half days! You would have thought they could have added that information into the message they left.
Thank you to everyone that responded. Your well wishes were great to read during my haze of panic! I hope everyone's week is off to a good start!
Thanks again,
T
Oh my goodness...

Ok, so I'm finally writing. Not really because I want to, but because I'm scared to death. I've enjoyed coming on this site and reading all of the day to day issues everyone has. Well, I can't say I have enjoyed it, it just helps me realize that no one's perfect. I never knew what to write myself. Well, tonight I feel as though I could write and write.
Well, a little background first. I am a very anxious/nervous type of person. I would even describe myself as a closeted hypochondriac at times. This past year I have been dropping pounds left and right. Weight has always been an issue for me and losing it has never been easy. So, I'm kind of enjoying it for a while. Then I get to thinking, maybe this is not normal. So, last week I go to the doctor and describe my symptoms. She pities me and does a bunch of blood tests, but she thinks it's just bouts of anxiety. I leave the doctor a little reassured that this is all in my mind, and maybe my body is finally doing me right!
Fastforward a couple of days. It's Friday and I spend the evening with my husband and some friends. We have a sitter for the night, so we really make a night of it. We stumble into the house around 2:30. My husband checks the messages and there is a message on the phone that says, "We have gotten your tests results. It is very important for you to contact our office as soon as possible. I will try your cell phone." Well, I never did receive a call on my cell phone. And I have been panicky ever since. I mean, who leaves that type of message on a Friday evening, knowing that I won't be able to call until Monday morning?!?!?!?!
Please, please, please wish me luck. I promise to write more after this horrible waiting is over. Hopefully with some good news!
Thanks for listening!
