Doctors office called with my blood test results from my glucose tolerance test. Don't have diabetes, but I am anemic. 325mg of iron 3x a day. I guess it could be worse but still kinda bummed out.
No problem! I love to help where I am able to. I figured I would pass that info along in case you didn't know, so Im glad I could help 😊 Also, the iron supplements could make you feel pretty sick, and they usually do....so if you need to eat when you take them, feel free. Taking them with plain water is never good, it can make you feel more nauseated. I hope you have better luck than I do when it comes to the nausea aspect. At least they caught it so you can begin treatment now. Do you know what your level was? Mine was 10.7 when they caught mine. They want it in the 12's. Idk what mine is at right now, but I have been on the meds for about 3 weeks now. I can definitely tell the difference when I don't take them as opposed to when I do. I feel like poop and so exhausted without them, and if I miss a dose I also notice I don't feel that great.
Oh my goodness, thank you! They didn't even tell me that! They didn't tell me anything really. Just that I'm anemic and have to take the meds. Thank you so much @sarahemccormick
Hey hun, I am also anemic taking 325 mg 2x a day. Make sure you have no dairy for an hour before and an hour after taking it, or it can block absorption. Also, take it with a glass of OJ or grapefruit juice each time, it will absorb better into the body. Xo
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!




LADIES !!!!! IM IN SHOCK!!!! so my period showed up a day earlier than expected, as you know I took those two blue dyes, both had a faint positive. Well the next day, I tested with a FRER and a Walmart 88 cent test and both were very very negative. Then I had a temp drop below coverline. AF showed the following day, a day early. I just knew i was out !! Well, yesterday I was sick as hell when I woke up, i get to work, and discover that my boobs are very sore as i ran into a wall coming around th...
I will not be tested for COVID unless I am showing all signs of having it! They taking newborn babies away from their mothers if they test positive. Over my cold dead body! No ONE will take my baby away from me bet!


So I scheduled my appointment for Thursday when my insurance is active! I'm just wondering if I should pay out of pocket to get a blood test done at this point 😩.
I hadn't been testing with fmu, so I just thought.. Let me test with my $1 test with fmu and see what happens (I've been testing with frer only - 1st Pic is the last one I took on Sat) and I got a faint line I think.. I've been getting negative with frer.
🤔
I feel like I'm going to drive myself crazy testing because I have to wait f...
So now that I have my test strips when do I start testing! I am on day 2 of af today and it lasts about 3-4 days normally. I have about a 26-27 day cycle. Any help would be very appreciated thank you!!😀
Also more helpful information! I knew none of that! They didn't even tell me what my level was. How it would make me feel. Not to have dairy an hour before or after. Everything you just told me is brand new information to me! Thank you sooo much!! @sarahemccormick
