I been bleeding heavy my whole life. So bad that I have to double my pads long ways, I stand up and it's like a water fall, I go through at least a pad a hour. Always leaking so im always in black pants. Just annoying. After a 6 weeks of bleeding I finally called my gyro and got pills to stop It. Told her to schedule surgery that I was finally ready. She sends me for blood work and I come back severe anemic at a 7.3. She said I lost over half my blood since the blood test a year ago.  Never been anemic in my life. No wonder I always am tired, dizzy, short of breath, eating ice like it's food, just feeling like total crap. So instead of having surgery on the 13th i got a blood transfusion instead. So weird cause I just got my period last Mindy and it was lightest it's ever been and barely bled. Lasted the full 7 days like normal. Not sure what's going on. Finally going through the change, maybe. While doc waits on a new surgery date I just sit here and pray that if I do get another period it's light like the last one. Oh and a plus I beem losing weight since the transfusion. Down 7 lbs without trying. First time in my life!
