Re: anemic, lethargic and cooooold!

Thinking of you Jessica while you deal with all these health issues. Not all anemia is iron deficent, but make sure you get all the B vitamins. An old midwife trick was to use liquid chlorophyll to help build the blood up after childbirth. It has a similar structure to the pyrole ring, except doesn't have the iron molecules.

Aranesp would likely make a big difference. My husband is anemic and has to have a shot every 2 weeks.

I hope you and your doctors figure out what the problem is and get you back to good health quick!
