A little rant.

Saw my midwife today. Appointment went well especially after the last one where I was emotional asf.
But since the beginning of March i said I know i had low iron levels. They made me wait until bloods a month later. Then the iron tablets made me have sickness and diarrhea for a month.
I finally went on new tablets last week. But now they are concerned that my iron levels are too low and talking about possible iron transfusion!

Like seriously wtf
