I'm half Can-eh-dian, but I think you mean Canucks close by. I hope you are able to find some kind of help and camaraderie. Bless!

ARCHIVED Quest. About Bath And Body Works
happiestgirl replied to sclark9602's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thanks so much for the "lecture." I needed it. Seriously. I am trying to take care of my Mom, who has just recently had her hip replaced, and then we live with two other roommates who could give a flying flip about my health.

I have been anemic since I was a child, but it is getting progressively and progressively worse. I have family history or both blood and bone cancers. My Hemoglobin and Hematocrit are plummeting, moreso since I have...

Last year (in September of 2005, I believe), I had some routine blood work done, and my doctor told me that my red blood cells were "extraordinarily tiny," and "malformed."
