Results from the doctor: my iron level and my ability to absorb iron is slightly lower than it should be. As a result, I have to take multivitamin tablets with extra iron (not iron tablets!) to boost it. My blood pressure is still too low, but they don't seem to have any idea what has caused that, so they're going to leave it and hope it fixes

That's...nice.

It's nice to know all that schooling taught them something.

*lol* My thoughts exactly. Where's Jarod with one of his quick fixes when I need him?

Hope the low blood pressure wooziness doesn't persist. On the iron front, the multivitamins do make sense, if only because ascorbate (vitamin C) helps with iron uptake.

Glad to hear you've got the thesis tamed enough for a short break. *suddenly envisions KB wielding chair to force thesis into cage*

*lol* Love your mental image! It does feel rather like that sometimes...

And I think I'm gradually getting over it all. Certainly feel better than I did a week ago!
