An expert is one who knows more and more about less and less.

Took a trip to Columbus yesterday to see the Hematologist about my Hereditary Hemocromatosis. I never saw him before but he is supposed to be good.
He told me after looking at all my test stuff that my family doctor sent him and actually examining me that he didn’t think I had Hemocromatosis. He said that I did have the mutated gene but that I didn’t have the high concentrations of iron in my organs that I would have to have. I had an elevated iron level in my blood but was a little anemic at the same time.
So let’s see, I had a wound and it is gone now. I had this blood disorder and now I guess I don’t after all. If this keeps up my diabetes will suddenly go away followed by my immune system returning to normal and letting my liver go on about its liver business. Then my high blood pressure will return to normal. At that point I’ll be back where I started last year.
Well I can dream can’t I? It is good news though. The Hemocromatosis is the most dangerous thing I thought I had. Now I can take vitamins and eat red meat again without worrying about raising my iron levels.
That 6 weird things about me tag has really started to make the rounds. It is even showing up on the Blogster site.
I’ve been working on a nice Dell laptop for the last week and have come to the conclusion that you should not spill beer into the keyboard. So far it needs a new keyboard and a new hard drive. I hope that’s all but it seems to be overheating every couple of hours too. I hope the person who owns it has the money for the parts.
Well, after being up in the daylight yesterday I’m getting tired so I think I’ll call it a night as I have to go to work tonight. Have a fun day!
