@loribmt and all
Hi, Lori. Don't have answers about blood yet. I hope to have some bloodwork tomorrow when I see the surgeon. No bleeding today, but I can't use the saline rinse at all. There's something not right about this saline rinse hurting me so much. It's really bad and indicates something is wrong. It should and did feel so good. Be healing. But, feels like I'm burning the insides of all my sinuses and my right ear. Then, headache and ear ache.
The sleep doc found my ferrous level was 12, I think it's supposed to be 20-750?????? Don't remember the exact number range, but it's crazy and I was off the charts negative. She almost gave me an iron infusion, but instead put me on Vitron-C, iron +C supplement. Gradually, after 2 years, I'm up to 25. So, I don't have much to play with here, so I have a feeling the numbers are low now. Blood was pouring for 10 - 20 min, I am a bit less weak today, but haven't done anything but rest all day. Upstairs. So, will be glad to see her tomorrow, although she will be sticking that instrument up my nose and it's tender.....oh well. All is good and tomorrow will be better. I'll find something out tomorrow. And, have a conversation about that drat nasal covid test.
You sound well. Hope so. I'm exhausted and off to bed asap.
Blessings, my friend. elizabeth
Elizabeth, you are such a trouper! Don’t rush your recovery, with that much blood loss you’re going to be tired! It’s time to relax in that super cushy nest you made upstairs.
You let that doctor know tomorrow to be gentle with your schnozz! Like Young Sheldon’s Mee Maw says, “Don’t go pokin’ at it!!” ☺️. Joking aside, I’m glad to hear the bleeding subsided today. Hopefully your sinuses are on the mend after the surgery and you’ll finally get relief after so many months of suffering. So happy to have you back with us. Nighty night, Miss Elizabeth. Hugs.
