Greetings Schmichs,
You came to the right place. Don't worry about TMI (too much information) in this support group. Support groups are for letting our feelings, worries, hopes, progress (or lack thereof), and anything else you want to say. Our offline friends can't possibly know how we feel, but our online buddies tend to "get it." So welcome and continue to share.
Jane

Close Anemia
Type: Iron Deficiency AnemiaI've never been an olympian, but have always been healthy (had previously run 10k races), but in Jan 2009 noted a marked lack of energy when skiing (something which I'd done fine before). That was in Jan 2009. I returned home, and noticed that I had lost the ability to run for any extended period of time. (say, more than 10 minutes). GP diagnosed me as Anemic, and tests are being carried out, but my fitness is dropping all the time.
Treatments
- Iron Somewhat Helpful
- I can't say if it's working.
Close Pulmonary Embolism
I had a PE in Oct 2005 (exact cause unknown), and a second PE in May 2006 (after being taking off Wafarin). I have the factor 5 lieden gene, and I am now on Wafarin for life.
