i got the results from my labs back (still low wbc, hemoglobin, hematocrit) and kinda laughing cause the phlebotomist was pushing "you need to drink things with less salt, more water, more electrolytes!" and then i'm looking at the rest of my labs and my sodium is borderline low. so uh. i think i need a little less water not more lol

#i'm like sipping at water all the time lately diluting me out i guess lol #135 is the low normal border and i'm at 136 lol #i gotta talk to my doc about the wbc and hemo/hema levels when i can #they've been low for a while and based on a lab i had in 2018 i have iron deficient anemia but looking stuff up i'm kind wondering #i was fairly malnourished back in 2018 cause i wasn't really eating since i was working and would run home to help mom at lunch #i mean i don't really eat all that much still since i just like to snack rather than eat big meals but i wonder if it is iron problems #either way i'm taking some iron supplements again starting today to see if it helps at all #ah taking care of my own health who'd think that was important
