It's Not A Too-mah!

Friday May 1st: 12:30 am
   
    Hannah and I are watching t.v when I have to blow my nose, so I blow my nose and of course IT'S BLOODY! So I go in the bathroom to take care of it and I get some of the blood on my nose. So I leaned over the sink to wipe my nose with the water while doing that Hannah comes in to tell me something about Wicked (whatever) but it is a good thing she came in cause when I stood up I got lightheaded, you know when you get up to fast but then it goes away after like a second but not this time. It got so much worse! I was like whoa my head is killing me and I could really see or hear anything i just froze... Hannah of course started freaking out and was like "Becca are you okay? Becca?" And it was like in the movies when the people are talking sounds so far away and faded. Hannah said that I was pale white and my eyes where dilated. She finally got me to lay down to go and get my mom. My mom and dad come out but when i had laid down it stopped and I was okay but i was really tired. I got up and and walked into my room and I'm in the doorway hugging Hannah when all of a sudden it started to happen again i was like "Hannah it's happening again. Go get mom!" So she lays me down and it wasn't as bad as the first time but still anyway mom and dad come out again and Hannah goes to get me water so i drink it and then I finally get my self together and go lay down and go to sleep. 
 
Later that morning:

 Mom called the doctor and we set up an appointment. So I go to the doctor and they said that they need to take blood to know for sure and I also need to go to a neurologist but some possibilities...

Hypoglycemia
Diabetes 
Anemic 
Epilepsy 
etc. 
All of these run in our family so these were all just possibilities.

Monday May 4th: 10:30 am
 
 I go to get my blood drawn and I'm not afraid of needles but seeing my blood in a vile on the counter kinda freaked me out a little bit. Any way so after they were done we left. And waited to get a call.

Tuesday May 5th: 5:22 p.m. 

 We get a call from the doctors and they talk to my mom and the results....


Anemia.

Grandam, My mom and Sarah all have it so I will be okay as long as I take over the counter iron pills. All that for something so little. But yah I just wanted to tell all you people what my excitement was over the weekend.

The End.

A wuss? About what?

In general.

"Hannah said that I was pale white"
Aren't you usually pretty pale? No?


I recently went to the doctor to test for a few things. I have to go back next Tuesday to find the results.

Becca said...

Hey! I can take pain pretty well thank you very much!

And compared to Hannah in Pain and in skin tone she is much whiter and is the wuss, Not me!

Aunt Me said...
