Dear Diary: The Story Of My Solved Anemia

I took advantage today of having to sleep while it is still not hot although my sleep is intermittent it is good enough to give me an ample rest and I do thank God for that I regard as a gift because sleeping had been my problem for so many years before and after being a dialysis patient.

My insomnia only had been quite solved after my hemoglobin corrected itself miraculously because most dialysis patients should be anemic because their kidneys doesn't produce the Erythropeitin hormone anymore so they have to get in injection of it based on their hemoglobin levels or get a blood transfusion regularly.

Getting some blood is very difficult especially if it is a Dengue season, you couldn't have the chance to reserve one whole unit of blood or packed RBC (Blood without the plasma) plus I have to call for reservation in the wee hours of the morning too just too make myself be the first to reserve.

After I was beginning t have my speech disability I thought that it would be impossible to call and speak for reservation about the blood and then it turned out that I no longer to call the Blood Center because I do not require to have a bloos transfusion anymore .

It is a miracle really because it might mean that my kidneys went to produce Erythropoeitin again. But some tumors also produces Erythropeitin but I can see or feel any tumors in my body. It is just a miracle I guess and again my thanks to God is more than a million times.

Had it been that I am anemic like before I might have not be surviving until to day so everyday is really a day of celebration for me.
