Yes, indeed. That's a good point. You've made me smile.
I was given a blood transfusion. That sure perked me up. I had an upper endoscopy and a colonoscopy. Those tests did not reveal any source of GI bleeding. Next I do a test where I swallow a teeny, tiny camera. That lets doctors look inside the small intestin.
The anemia explained a lot. I was not wanting to do any housework. I thought I was depressed, but I didn't feel despondent. Finally I got to where it was hard to stand up or walk from room to room.
