The will of iron
Went in for yet another iron shot today. Ouch. Hello big ugly bruise!
I really dislike the whole 'metallic taste in mouth' thing - approximately 90 minutes after I get liquid buckshot in my butt, I feel like I have a bunch of ball bearings in my mouth. That joyous sensation lasts a few hours.
But afterwards, I feel better. It feels like someone pushed the 'on' button for my metabolism. I'm not buzzing or anything - I just don't feel exhausted. Sleepy, hell yes, but not exhausted.
Oh, yeah. For all of you who ever experience that metallic taste in the mouth, here is a secret. Oatmeal. A big serving of oatmeal with demerara sugar got rid of it for me. Nothing else I tried even touched it. Hooray for my most favorite worktime snack!
