...with some extra blood.

I went to hospital's day care unit yesterday to get two units of blood as I was anaemic and my HB was low. What a mission, by the time they got he blood ready, and in me, was pretty late and evening transport from hospital is not very good.

Eventually, I got home at about 9pm.I was hoping the extra red blood cells will pick me up and add some energy, as per usual, but not really. Feeling pretty much the same except that now my heart is working overtime. Is beating like there is no tomorrow and I'm not even moving. If I was in hospital I would be hooked up on monitoring in the cardio section... at home, all I can do is it will pass. My chest is pretty heavy and I got swollen ankles so I can just see my pure heart thinking WTF?

Anyway, I hope my local doc will have some idea on how to settle it down so I'm waiting for a phone call back. I feel like I should just go to bed and I think that's what I'm gonna do.

Hmmm My Doc thought I looked a little white, and took a blood test to see if I were anemic, I had my cod liver oil that day, and I take some antioxidents, so knew it was a waste of time and money...but gotta 'go along' with the Doc..I was right!!! Sorry to hear about your tough ordeal!!!
