Pumping Iron


My NP called this a.m. and said the blood tests were all good, but I'm definitely anemic with low iron stores so it's time for Iron Infusions. Yay!

Normally there's a product they dispense that is "less frequent" but apparently there's some sort of shortage of it and they have none, so I have to do some other product that is a once per week infusion. This means I'll have to visit the Oncologist office 1x/week for... I don't even know, she didn't say. Someone is to call me to make the appointments and I guess they'll tell me how many weeks to start.

Sound like fun? Oh boy, does it!

Soon I will be "pumping iron" for real as info meetings are going on right now for this season's Team in Training events, which means actual training should start soon. I'm guessing mid-May but I'm not certain yet. I'm still doing my Belly Dance class on Tuesday nights and trying to walk with Amy S. on Sundays, and I hooked up with a woman on Craig's List who was looking for a "Walking Buddy", which should work out well.

That's it for now, more to come.
Amy
