Getting a Transfusion for Anemia: My Story
AI-generated title
Tim, how bad is the anemia? When my hemoglobin dropped below 7, I was given a blood transfusion and it helped a lot. Blood donors are few these days so blood is in high demand and labs are very stingy with transfusions

Managing Fatigue: Symptom or Stress? Tips?
AI-generated title
Hi there! Recently diagnosed so I don't even have all my results, risk factors, etc. yet. Sitting down with the specialist next week to design my treatment plan, so it's all very new and not a little scary. The only symptom I have is the anemia/fatigue. The rest of CRAB is normal/negative. We're also trying to sell our primary home and our rental property (in progress well before we know anything was amiss) and I just started a new job 6 days after diagnosis. So the stress needle is all the way to the right. Is there a way to differentiate the stress fatigue from the symptomatic fatigue? Other than caffeine-loading, what are some good tips, techniques, lies for mitigating the symptomatic fatigue? Thanks. Tj Scotts Valley, CA
