And I have to admit I'm a bit discouraged.
I'm becoming anemic, while I'm still on the very, very low end of normal, I've always been very, very high, and she said this probably has a lot to do with my being very tired somedays, and being anemic may be contributing to my inability to keep foods down somedays.
Then there was blood work done to assess your cardiac risk, and a score of 1-3 is normal, 3-9 being a high risk for heart attack, and my number is 13.7, which the Dr. says points to something else being wrong and while she did a EKG on me at my appointment and she assures me that my heart is fine, I have more testing to be done, and the nutrionist is also to look at this and work with me.
Needless to say, I'm bummed out. I have an appt. w/ the Nutrionist on Wednesday, and more labwork to do in 2 weeks.
