No biggie. The nurse called and apparently I'm anemic. I just have to take an iron supplement for at least 6 months, and then they'll check it again.
It explains the horrible headaches I've had (almost every day for the past 2+ weeks)! I looked up anemia and it's one of the major symptoms. Also, the iron should help me feel not so tired all the time. I don't eat a whole lot of meat, but she said I could do that in combination with the iron pills.
Oh, and for my next post I promise to share all our Florida pics. I don't have all of them uploaded to my Photobucket and I'm being lazy.

I hope you don't get the major side effect from the extra iron. At least you know what's been giving you the headaches.
Make sure you eat plenty of fiber! I hope the extra iron will help you feel better.
welcome to the anemia club.
I have to take iron too, but I take an rx that is slow released and doesn't give the consitpation most iron supplements give you.
