Lack of Iron
6 CommentsLast blood test show my red blood cells low, so I had to do further testing. Oh well, since it is free, I go ahead with it. The result came back, saying my iron is very low.
Doc: Your result shows you have to take more iron. I will prescribe some iron tablet.
Me: Does the tablet cause constipation?
Doc: I will give you iron syrup instead.
Me: Ok
Doc: Take it for 5 weeks and come back for further blood test.Darn, I had to open my big mouth. I really regret asking for the syrup, it taste yeaky and it leave an after taste, like licking steel. I went to my in house clinic and ask for iron tablet instead. Now I have 2 giant bottle of iron syrup in my fridge.
Another doc said that I can get iron from seafood and it is my favorite. First time ever, maybe I am the unique one, have permission from doctor to take seafood. Usually doc will always advice patients to cut down on this and that. :giggles:
OK, I booked a Japanese Buffet this weekend for my family. That is enough iron in the buffet to last for a week. I hope. :clap:

Chanel: Sure.
Sasha: I forgot to take my pills back…:doh:. Now during the weekends, I have to stick to syrup. Now I pop a sweet after I take it.
Jan: Yes, I do feel dizzy some days.
Jess: I love “si ham” but my hubby kept telling me it is dirty. The other day, the doc encourages me to eat, yeah got permission liao. :dance:
