ok.
So after becoming sick again, for the hundredth time in half a year, I decided to go to a doctor. My blood pressure is very, very, very, very low. 106/40. Most people are telling me to go to the hospital, but not unlike Amy Winehouse, I wont go, go, go.
Instead, I went to my doctor. Dr. gupta, whom I love, is an amazing woman. She takes shit from no one, and if i were in a fight to death and needed someone to back me up, I'm choosing the guptanator.
The point is this. I've been taking blood tests all week and it worries me. last time i heard the words "more blood tests", the result was that my mother had MS. Also, im a hypochondriac and have an over active imagination. I've been convinced that the leukemia got me.
So this is the first round of tests:
thyroid
diabetes
cholesterol
fine.
second testing:
complete blood count
b12
and two other ones.
i made the mistake of researching the cbc with diff and a plt on the internet. Every single one said cancer, but thats irrational. it's just counting every single blood cell, red, white and platelet.
totally freaking out and te woman at the place where blood is taken is BRUTAL. my arms hurt.
upset,
Shea
