Pernecious Anemia Mood
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 | A General Update story

Well, for the past couple of months I have been working and getting really tired but since my job required me to be outside, I always thought it was just due to the heat.  Well I saw my doctor and he did some tests and said my blood count is all out of wack.

 

For 2 weeks every day I went into his office and was given a vitamin B12 shot plus now I take an iron pill 3 times a day.  I still feel like shit.  I have had blood tests 3 times since and they are still all screwed up.  Now I am off to see a specialist.

 

Vitamin B-12 shots foor 2 weeks straight then once a week for 4 weeks then once a month with me also taking an iron pill 3 times a day for the next 60 days.  Yikes!
