I Have Good Days And Bad Days And Every Day In Between

@samueltyler2 My gyno. Made it extra scary.

@EllaDisenchanted Was someone in labor? I know they aren't allowed to tell you anything, but that is frightening. I Did the screaming go on ling? My mond makes up all sorts of stories for the reason.

More importantly, i suppose, are you okay? I assume it was a routine check up?

@samueltyler2 No, they don't do actual delivery with that doctor. It went on a little while.

I'm fine, just had to get some stuff done.

@EllaDisenchanted no they never plan to do a delivery there, but things do happen. In school I delivered a woman in an elevator, another in the restaurant across from the hospital.

Was your stuff painful?

@samueltyler2 True, good point. I don't rightly know what was going on.

Yeah, very.

@EllaDisenchanted I assume then, that you didn't scream? Are you okay now?

@samueltyler2 I'm not a screamer with pain. I'm a grab something and groaner. Yeah, it'll get better.

@EllaDisenchanted did you have someone to support you?

@samueltyler2 Myself. Hubby had to work.

@EllaDisenchanted that wasn't nice of him, did he know you were having a procedure?

@samueltyler2 Yes. He has responsibilities tho and not everyone can just take a day off. It was quite routine for me. Didn't need support.

@EllaDisenchanted okay, then he is off the hook. Many times I required a person to accompany a patient if I thought I'd have to do a procedure.

@samueltyler2 It's quite minor and I had to come in for my transfusion anyways so nothing big. I'm a country girl. We don't need support for every small thing, we just get things done.

Transfusion?

@samueltyler2 Yeah. I already was scheduled for it so made more sense to get done what I needed to after with my other doctor.

@EllaDisenchanted am I too inquisitive in asking Why you are getting a transfusion?

@samueltyler2 My anemia

Do you have a hereditary anemia? Usually the treatment for anemia, in my practice days, is finding the cause and eliminating it.

@samueltyler2 Severe iron deficiency. Side problem from other stuff.

@EllaDisenchanted blood loss isbtjebusual cause of such, once the source ofntje blood loss is found and fixed, the anemia corrects. I am sure your doctors known what they are doing and we probably shouldn't bendiscussingnyour health on a public forum anyway.

By the way, the pomegranate is considered a very important fruit historically and in Judeo-Christian tradition.

@samueltyler2 I just need occasional transfusions once in a while to jumpstart blood cell production when my levels get too low. Pretyy standard stuffs.

Yep. I've always loved it and its romance lore.

@EllaDisenchanted you have only a problem with your red blood cells?

You know about the fixed number of seeds?

@samueltyler2 My anemia is severe iron deficiency from my body not processing things right. So My red blood cell count is lower than average and i can have dips that can be dangerous. So once in a while I need a transfusion when my iron supplements aren't enough.

I don't know what you mean. Like master cells?

@EllaDisenchanted there are white cells and platelets also produced by the bone marrow. You don't absorb iron then orally?

@samueltyler2 Ah, i've never heard them called seeds. Just white ells and platelets. It absorbs but not fully. I get about 40ish percent to 60ish percent of what I get from food or supplements. My body just doesn't absorb the rest. Something to do with my protein absorption issues but the docs aren't fully sure how it's related.
