Finally my blood results show im not "normal"

I have been feeling crap for a while now & kept getting really strange symptoms so I finally managed to go and see the doctor last Tuesday, felt like I had an MOT while there, chest, heart, bp, lungs, throat, ears, eyes, felt my tummy & had me raising my legs & bending down to touch my toes the works. He also had me go for a barrage of blood test, and finally they didn't all come back "normal", I had low vitamin B12 and low folate levels, also my thyroid levels were slightly low too, so glad that something showed up as not right as was getting to the stage I was thinking people thought I was making it all up, now I am just waiting on going back to see the dr to get started on medication to fix this, hopefully what ever he gets me doing or taking helps me to feel myself again, feel so bad at times it makes me snap at Chris and the girls, its not there fault but I really cant help it!

I am still going back and forth to the haematology clinic at the hospital as well just now, had more blood tests carried out a few weeks back, the previous ones had shown deficiencies in arachidonic acid within my platelets which they need to help form clots as part of the platelet cascade, there are also involved in production of prostaglandins and a few other chemicals in the body so probably causing me other problems as well! Oh well get the new results in April so we will see then what they plan on doing to help sort that mess out!

Nothing is ever simple medically with me!

On another note I am in the middle of re-decorating Brogan's bedroom soon to be Brogan & Violet's bedroom, cant wait to get little miss out of my room & for Christmas to be over with so that I may get my room back because at this moment in time it is over-run with toys that are hiding in there for santa!!!
