Acute Anemia

this is what I came down with about two weeks ago. it started on Friday. I stared out dizzy and very tired it really hit me after the kids were off to school. I went back to bed and didn't think much about it. my parents picked up the kids that week end (like they do every other weekend) so I really didn't need to get up, and the next day I was better. but Sunday it got worse, i don't know why, it could have been that wine cooler or the fact that my extended period was on super heavy, or it could have been the wine cooler. all I know was that I was super dizzy, I felt like I was on the tilt-a-whorl and could not get off. I was so dizzy that I was seeing double, my eyes were spinning and I was nauseated. By the time my husband went to pick up the kids, I was throwing up every hour and would not stop till Monday night. luckily my parents come over on Monday to take my daughter to gymnastics and us out to eat. this is when my mother became convinced that it was my high blood presser that was causing the whole problem (which it's not) and that I should get that under control(which I do) I already had a doc. appointment for Tuesday (OBGYN) so I called my normal doc and informed him of this new development (they said it could be that cyst, which to me is like saying "its not our problem") and off to the doc. I went, of course my husband drove. the doctor said that both the cyst and the fibroid were very small and were not the reason of all this. he put me on a new medicine that stopped my period and now I am finally starting to feel normal. I am still a little dizzy, and I cant drink alcohol or coffee, but I am getting there
