My mom is beginning to think that I'm anemic now.
To be honest, the more I think about it, the more I think she might be right.
Even though she came to that conclusion after we did all that yardwork Saturday, and the only reason I was tired then was because the only thing I had to eat that day was two poptarts. No duh, I was worn out... I didn't have anything to give me energy. XD
But I have noticed that I feel tired a lot of the time, and I get a lot of headaches for no particular reason.
I started taking extra vitamin B recently, and that's helped a lot,
but it hasn't totally solved the problem.
And with my mom stuffing the bottle of vitamin B into my linen closet,
I tend to forget it's there and that I need to take it. D:
So I need to pull it out somewhere where I can see it.
If I am anemic, it's probably because I don't get enough iron or some s**t.
I hardly eat meat anymore, so that could be a big part of it.
No big deal. Follow a better diet plan, take some extra vitamins. Fixed.
=)
Or it could have nothing to do with that at all,
and just be because I don't drink a lot of water.
I am working on that, too, but I just never feel thirsty. >_>
Either way, I've been meaning to ask to have a doctor's appointment set up anyway,
to get some food tips since I'm cutting a lot of meat out of my diet.
I wanted some ideas for alternative iron and protein sources,
so I wouldn't end up anemic.
Well it might be too late for that, but still. Now is just a better time to do it, that's all.
The thing I don't like about this, is that if I do that, I'll probably have to get a blood test. And we all know how terrified I am of needles.
And the nurses here seem to have a terrible habit of missing veins.
So... s**t. D;
That's the one thing that's keeping me from just coming out with it and saying that I think I have it.
At least I don't have to worry about this until later in the week,
when we're back from Florida. >_>
