11/30 and home now

Actually came home Friday night.. anyways.. just wanted to say hi, and things are great. Actually the pain I anticipated is not here, feel very tired, and in general like I was ran over by a truck.. sort of like the tiredness, blah, after having a baby. Not a lot of pain per say.
Also had a 7.5 hemoglobin so was glad I didn't end up with a transfusion.
Well, much love and gonna go lay down for a while.

Wow, 7.5 hemoglobin, that sure is low! I had a tranfusion with 8.3, but I kept fainting so I guess your body is better equipped than mine.
Happy you're home. Rest up, Princess !!

Well, the nurse in the morning actually freaked out, ,and kinda freaked me out about it.. but the doctor explained it like this..A normal is a 12.. so, if you have a 12, then go to 7.5,, it's a big deal. We knew that I have been anemicc for a while. I had an 8 going it.. so a 7.5 was good relatively speaking. Though the transfustion was a possibility the whole time..
