numbers finally went up. 9.3 as opposed to the 7.3 to 7.8 that it's been for the past few months. i have arrived at marginal.
thanks. it was hard work, eating a lot of things i would not ordinarily eat. lots of beef and liver and beets. also had to carefully measure how much exercise so to build instead of lose heme. 12.1 is at the low end of normal for hemoglobin, but at this point i am not considered to be in danger anymore.
