So, we met with the hematologist on Wed. He didn't want to do the infusion. He said that although the risk was slight, there was a risk to the baby as an individual and that it wasn't worth the risk. Can't argue with that. So, he wants me to start taking liquid iron, twice a day. Apparently it's a higher concentration. I got the prescription, but haven't had a chance to get it filled yet. I'll keep you posted how it works out.
Well, I have to keep this brief because it's the day before Easter and I have a lot of preparations to make for the Easter Bunny to come tomorrow.

So, they finally just called me this morning to set the appt for my iron infusion. I was really getting frustrated and worried. I don't know what could happen to the baby with the low iron, but it can't be good. So, I have to be there tomorrow at 1pm. According to the net, it could be a lengthy procedure. They have to do some tests first to make sure that I don't have an allergic reaction.
I'm not really worried about the procedure itself, but how it might make me feel. Like will it make it sick, or dizzy or what? Taking the pills is hard on my tummy and I even take the slow release ones, so I don't know if it will have the same affect being put into me thru an iv. So, we'll see...
