It’s good to know I am not lazy, but I am tough

I was starting to wonder it just seems to take so long to get things done and so hard to get motivated to do them. As I mentioned before I went to the naturopathic a couple weeks ago, well I finally went and got the blood work done that she ordered. She called me the next day, and told me I had a very low iron count and wanted me to go see a hematologist. The hematologist wanted to see me the next morning she had no opening so she just worked me in. Well come to find out my iron level was 6.5 a normal is 30. That would explain why I am always so tired and have to force myself to get things done. The doctor was surprised that I was getting anything done. They gave me some intervenes iron, and I have to take iron with every meal. So hopefully in a few weeks I will start to feel better. I came home and told Andy, it was so nice to know I wasn’t getting lazy ( this has really been bothering me ) and that my doctor said I was pretty tough lol.

I have always been a little anemic and try to take my iron but for some reason I stopped taking it about a year ago ( I know stupid) bet I don’t stop taking it anymore lol.
