Hey- thanks for caring about me--so appreciate it! Started on iron pills for anemia--bloated up like I was several months into a pregnancy--didn't absorb a thing according to the labs--now I am taking iron IV three times a week for the next several weeks--fun, fun fun!!!! Funny, ibs not too bad these days--who knows? It's a mystery, right? Hope you are doing well...will try to check the boards-but I am moving to West Palm Beach at the end of the month--kinda busy since I am the only one packing!!!!!YIKES!!! take care. carol
