Hospital Updates
I have Anemia, hurray!

That sure explains a lot. I've had it for a long while apparently. Only diagnosed finally because it has been getting worse. It was apparently  the  cause of my hospital visit back in august, just no one figured it out, they all thought it was my thyroid, until all the tests came back negative. They told me i was fine but the stupid doctors were wrong, on several occasions apparently. I've had some pretty obvious symptoms but i didn't know they were related to anything, and no one bothered to ask me.  My body isn't getting enough iron, which means i don't have enough blood, which means i don't have enough oxygen going through my body, which you could imagine could cause a host of problems which i associated with age or being out of shape. I eat the right kind of foods for iron, so now i have to build up on suppliments till they find a dosage which makes me feel normal, which apparently may take some time. There are many things that can cause this, so i guess they need to figure it out. Funny thing is i thought i was normal before i found this out, except for very recently, so i wonder just how long i've had this.

Anyways,
I suppose everything apart from this is fine lawl.
Oh yea, I still need a new job.

Glad you figured out what was wrong. I didn't know you weren't feeling good, tho.. Feel better!
