    Well, the body does have an amazing ability to repair itself, so often times it does just go away if you give it what it needs (or less of what it doesn't, as the case may be.)

    Any updates. Have you gotten your iron levels back up? Did all your symptoms go away?

    Yeah, going in for a Colonoscopy end of January, the doc told me my red blood was at 8 and should be around 9, where did the blood go indicates minor bleeding, stool sample showed blood in the stools , although not visible to me. Looks like the worse part of the test is the gallon of lemonaid the night before. So hopwfully they will be able to fix want they find while looking around.
    On the good side my catscans shows no heart or lung problems. They did give me a IV injection of iron which helped alot. Palmdale's ER room has great doctors and staff.
    So its just one day at a time to get thru this. Kind of inveny everyone out there roll down that long lonesome highway.
    Be safe, and remember who the professional drivers really are, keeping america roling. Don't let the others mess up your day.
    Also great thanks to the owner of Inland Xpress in Salt Lake, his reaction is priceless, Simply put, let me know when your ready we have a truck for you. Unlike Heartland who would not give me Family Emergency for my wifes broken wrist. Nic, Your attitude toward your driver is priceles, simply the besy I have ran into in over 20 years, Inland simply the best to work for.
