I so do not want to be one of numerous bloggers who expound on medical issues, but what the hell, everyone else is doing it, right? And, no, I would not jump off a brigde just cause everyone else is, maybe if there were a bungee tethered to my whole body, but otherwise, no.
My issue is anemia, not anorexia where people are stick thin and think they are fat, but anemia in which the body does not have enough iron. Short version of the story is that apparently I am severely anemic - to the point that at my last dr. visit, they were thinking of a transfusion. So now I'm on ferrous sulfate, a fancy schmancy word for iron. I used to dream of being lucky enough to look for and eat iron rich foods, i.e. liver, spinach, some grains, etc. Well, I have finally found something that I love that has 16% of the recommended daily dose. It's in the form of chocolate and not just any chocolate, but Turtles! Yes, T-U-R-T-L-E-S WOOHOO!
Okay, now you can tune back to your regularly scheduled blogs.
