Update On My Health

Crissy Herron | August 11, 2009 | 0 Comments

Many of you have expressed concern over my health. It’s been a couple weeks since I got out of the hospital (see previous post about why I was in the hospital here). My blood levels had been going up. My hemoglobin was going up about a point per week, and I got it up to 11. I went to the hematologist on Monday and it felt back to 10.

My hematologist checked my iron levels and I just got a phone call letting me know that my iron was only at 30 (normal is between 60 85). So, iron supplements, here I come! Once my iron is back up, I am hoping my hemoglobin will follow in that direction. Normal hemoglobin is 15, so that’s the number I’m shooting for there!

Wish me luck!
