Happy 4th of July everyone!
The heat here in Southern California is making me feel TERRIBLE! I was at my former place of employment last Thursday (picking up my final paycheck) and since USC Norris is in the same complex - I called my nurse to arrange for a CBC and possible transfusion last Friday. My HgB the week prior had been 8.8 and I was feeling miserable - so I thought I had gone down. I have job interviews this week and wanted to get perked up a bit for them.
So I got my cbc done: I'm at a 10.0!!!! So I feel bad because I went up 1.2 grams in a week. I'm also dehydrated. I started drinking gatorade and tons of water and I feel better.
A fun aspect of losing my job is that we have to pay COBRA now for health benefits: $935.49/month!!! At this rate - we'll be living in a box for Christmas (no, not that bad...) but still...I don't know how people afford it for more than a few months.
Next CBC is the 13th - I'm hoping it's up there!!!
