Hi TT, how are you doing?

Good night jj2 and Gummy Bear!

Hey Jerry, I'm doing well, thanks.

Have another danged doctors appointment tomorrow ... the camera doctor ... to find out what he found on his camera which I doubt is going to be anything.

Probably more prescriptions ... you know how that is.

TT

The bus driver got a chuckle out of seeing me do a dance.

Well, the doctor survived me. I think he'll be okay if he does what I told him to do.

And he told me I have bleeding capillaries in my intestines and that there's nothing they can do about it other than monitor my blood hemoglobin and give me more blood when it drops too low.

On the other hand it seems the bleeding has stopped, so maybe it won't be much of a problem other than monthly blood work in the lab.

But, I did learn that this is causing anemia and the doctor said that is the likely cause of my breathlessness and getting tired so easy and quickly. He said to take a vitamin with a lot of iron in it and eat a lot of iron rich foods (which we had guessed and have already been doing).

So, I'll just have to have my hemoglobin monitored monthly and get blood if I need it and eat a lot of foods high in iron and see what happens. That's all that can be done.

So that's not bad at all and if there's no more bleeding there won't be any more of a problem! Piece of cake!

That is pretty good news, TT. It sounds like as long as you stay on top of this, it will all be okay. And I know that Mrs TT will make sure that you keep up with the monthly bloodwork.

Mr Gold has to have it done monthy too and I have to practically beat him with a stick to get him to go but hey, I have no problem giving stick beatings lol

I know that you are glad to hear that they won't need to do surgery and that part had to be good news.

Just follow Drs orders (and Mrs TTs too) and you will do just fine. :)
