Thank you so much for your kindness. I'm hanging in there as best as I can. I even called the ER and they said, per my last two visits there wasn't really anything different they would do and more than likely release me AGAIN since my tests turned out normal and primary indicates "anxiety" this is causing the problem. Idiot.
I told them I know have lymph nodes in the neck, extreme pain in right flank area an stomach, hernia and some lab abnormalities (as listed below) and they said I should reach out to the Dr. who ordered them to discuss. Trust me, at these hospitals in my town they don't care, especially if your over 65. Even the hospital I went to 2 yrs ago, which was the Northwestern University Hospital, they released me next day.

I really prefer a integrative/holistic MD that treats symptoms and cares, especially when it comes to LT Covid. Trust me, I would find the strength within me to travel and get the help I need, but where? Even when I saw the internal MD at Mayo it was a big waste of time and $$$$$. He gave me an Rx for Guafancine, said, "why not try it, it'd good stuff." When I reached out to him 15 times pleading for him to call me back because it lowers blood pressure and mine is already low at my weight, and he refuses to call me back - nurses say he's too busy.

Transferrin 386 mg/dL (189 - 340 mg/dL H(
Iron binding capacity, calculated 540 ug/dL {250 - 450 ug/dL H)

Hi @summerof42. Havnt been up to doing this and today hoping this finds you may have a little light at end of tunnel you’ve found thru alternative sources by you? I know each of us is so different with our bodies reactions and hopeful ok for me to share my simple things I think are helping. I have groceries bought for me and maybe they can deliver to you as even minimal shopping can decimate our efforts couple of days later☹️ Think protein and iron every couple of hours allows to stable levels affecting so much in us. So I buy precooked frozen turkey sausage, low sugar greek yogurt that tastes good! giant container fresh baby spinach (easy to grab handful), kombucha/ and or apple cider vinegar with the mother (digestive balance) that I add few ounces to hot green tea throughout day for stabilizing blood pressure/hydration . I set alarms for every couple of hours and I also eat some each time I go to bathroom/phone/fill out something. Basically eating before doing anything and not using up our bodies precious energy and resources. Another easy open frig item is the small high protein shake boxes that most have wonderful added nutrients if your stomach too sensitive for digesting food. I am happy to offer my help thru conference calls or other means you need if Im able. Small things each day can grow into real improvement so please allow us to continue to support you to find assistance there🌈
