Medical Dramallamas

Since this isn't a livejournal account I don't know how to put things behind a cut so you'll just have to sit and endure me giving you an insight into my current medical dilemmas. Also, I'm feeling slightly concerned as to anyone who may read this as they walk behind me as I'm currently int he science library; cue constant;y checking over my shoulder every ten words.

Soooo I went to the doctor this morning to get the results from my blood tests and it turns out that I'm apparently quite anaemic - so much so that my red blood cell count has dropped or they've gotten smaller or something. And now I have to take something called Ferrograd C tablets which are these bright red pills the size of New Zealand, and we all know the problems I have taking pills in the first place. So I also grabbed some of the liquid version (called Ferro-liquid, or as I will forever be calling it 'Ferral Liquid' BECAUSE I KNOW IT'LL TASTE LIKE SHIT) and see what happens from then. My doctor said I could take injections instead, for which I was all gung ho about because I love injections and hate tablets, but then after she wrote me the second prescription she said they'd be administered as an injection.. in my butt.. so I think I'm going to man up and start learning how to take tablets.

Also, I have PCOS, of some degree. Look it up, because I don't really feel like going into too much detail about that.
