Health is A-OK

Hi, folks,

Thanks for the good wishes on my health.

I'm SO glad to report that I'm doing better - and the test results verify that. I saw the gastroenterologist last week and he speculated that I may have been septic back in Ohio, or passed a gall stone - either would have created the lab results I had. My anemia was so bad it looked as though I'd lost 3-4 pints of blood! He thinks if I had gone to the Emergency Room instead of the Urgent Care the first time I went that they would have cultured my blood then and put me in the hospital for 3-5 days on IV antibiotics. As it is, we don't know for sure whether it was a gall stone or sepsis from the urinary tract infection, but my blood work this time showed that I've returned to normal. I've been exhausted and very frustrated that I rest and rest and still feel like crap. His explanation tells me why, I guess, but it's a slow process.
