--------------------------- ONE MORE THING!!------------------------

I also want to get her to check my antibodies and ferritin. (See what

I've learned here?)

It is interesting to note that since I went down to the 2 grains 3

WEEKS AGO, i have GAINED back 8 lbs of the 20 I had to work my butt

off to lose. Now as it is PMS time, I hope some of it is that, but I

definitely am NOT staying down at this lower dosage and gaining back

all that and more. GRRR
