Last Thursday...... Very Important......
I will be 4 years post op on 4-17-10...... And I have done very well with my weightloss..... I was one of the ones who stayed on Obesity Help.... Could not wait to have the surgery and vowed to do everything necessary to make this tool work.... Well, I stop taking my supplements a while ago because I felt like I did not need them.... Please do not make that mistake.... I was in a car accident on last Thursday and I totaled my car..... My iron level was so low that I blacked out behind the wheel.... When I woke up I was in the hospital..... my level was a 5 and it should have been between 13 -15. I had to get a blood transfusion I feel fine now and yes I am taking my vitamins and I have to take my iron pills 3 times a day now.... But thank God he spared me.... Please don't take this lightly....
OMG! Praise God that you made it through that. God's hand was on you. You are so right. We MUST monitor our health regularly, ie blood work, heart tests, bone density, breast and pelvic exams and so on. It's no joke. Thank you for the reminder and again, I'm so glad you are recovering. Feel better soon.
