I can relate, Syren! I was taking a 'Snow Day' today, so I didn't bother putting on any make-up, since I knew I wouldn't be going out.
I was supposed to be housecleaning in prep for our annual 'tree-trimming' dinner with a friend tomorrow, but I just couldn't work up the energy.
Anyhow, I just caught a glimpse of my face in the bathroom mirror, and I look like I'm auditioning for a vampire movie! Ashen cheeks with bruised-looking circles under my eyes and totally bloodless lips. I suspect that blood test I just had done on Thursday will show my ferritin levels have plummeted again. [Oh well, at least that would provide an explanation for this continuing fatigue.]
But, I'm trying my best to fight the anaemia. Had a steak tonight, and tomorrow it's Prime Rib for company.
Anyhow, Syren, I know your condition is much more severe than mine, so I hope you're taking things easy!
Best wishes, Hester
