Sorry to butt in——however, if you take Prilosec or Nexium or any of that classification of drugs you may experience anemia caused by low iron. These drugs block absorption of iron and other things.
“Some researchers have suggested that PPIs might interfereTrusted Source with the absorption of calcium, iron, and vitamin B 12, “
Something to explore.
Thank you. I appreciate your concern.
My anemia is caused by a rare autoimmune disease called cold agglutinin disease (CAD). When my blood is exposed to lowered temperatures, my red blood cells clump together and are thought to be alien invaders. As such they are targeted for destruction. I am always hemolyzing like this and always anemic.
The weird part is that it isn’t an iron deficency. In fact, most CAD patients have too much iron. We have sufficient iron, but not enough red blood cells to carry it around.

YESSSS!!! Good job.
Thanks for the information.
My husband has the opposite problem, he makes too may red blood cells. Whole different protocol for that,
“Teega wants to know where his Auntie CB has gone!”
How is that big handsome boy?!
And why is MAGA in the title now, I really wish that would go away. We ARE the Trump Train!!!!!
“Have you entertained at all this spring/early summer? You have a perfect home/yard for company”
I had people over on saturday, which was probably a mistake. I didn’t realize I was sick and probably gave everybody the flu. Best intentions...
PS. I’m finding the MAGA in the title confusing. Probably just me. But I don’t want to accidentally post on the wrong thread. I don’t know why but I got pinged to the other one and at first glance the titles look similar.
Sounds like you had a lovely day with your children. Nice!!!!
I was checking out that stuff methylene blue last night. Not sure about how it works, but lots of those hemoglobiny words in the description of it. Wondering if you gals have checked it out, just in case.
Hi CB!
Nice to see you back. I hope your guests don’t get sick lol. I know it wouldn’t be from your cooking, so there’s that.
I find the MAGA title a little confusing as well. I wondered why it would be changed to that.
I see General Flynn has posted this. President Trump also reposted the same thing. Interesting, isn’t it?

Hi Jem....
Well, here we go! About time!
I just don’t want to post on the wrong thread, JR will be called and I will be banned. For such a minor infraction. LOL
Lol well that’s a very serious infraction! Never mind JR being immediately contacted....that might be a crime up in the Tom Homan category!
Sorry. I have not.
“PS. I’m finding the MAGA in the title confusing. Probably just me.”
No it isn’t just you. It is confusing and I wondered why the change.
Agree. It is very confusing and I have no idea how it happened either. Makes no sense.
*Blinking*
Just woke up from an “undocumented” nap!
*wink*
Cotton!!
*HUG*
There you are!
*SUPERDUPER HUG!*
You were missed!!
“And why is MAGA in the title now, I really wish that would go away. We ARE the Trump Train!!!!!”
I will defer that question to our sweet and VERY dear leader on this, okay?
TEEGA is still a Big(er) handsome boy!
I need a little more coffee, back in a few!
*smooch*
P.S.
*evil grin*
Undocumented nap, I like that. I’ve been taking a few of those since I’ve been sick.
My kitten, who will be one in another few days so she is still technically a kitten, is so overweight. I haven’t been limiting her food because I’ve never had a fat kitten. But she was the one whose mama tried to starve her, she tried to kick her off her and wouldn’t let her eat. So all Winter wants to do is eat all the time. Emotional eating. The poor thing is so fat, I feel so bad for her. And I’m going to get her healthy! And Cooper, he needs to lose some. And then me, of course. Are you still doing keto?
Ladies!!! Now behave (in my best Mike Myers/Austin Powers voice) well all except that gal in Maine - she can’t🤣)
Some facts
MAGA is NOT allocated, copyrighted, whatever by ANY Free Republic Group
MAGA is the movement’ -many believe will be the future New political party - the Phoenix from the ashes of the GOP
MAGA is Trump . We are a Trump group
We ARE the Trump Train
ANY adjective can be put in front of the word Trump. MAGA IS APPROPRIATE
Big Beautiful has recently become fashionable
Big Beautiful MAGA Trump Train??? Hmmm
REMINDER- all those complaining now were very VERY sparse or totally absent when decisions were to be made and I was planning on locking the thread.
I believe we are all smart enough to use the right bathroom, not drink turpentine or to go to a correct thread
Yes you’ll be pinged by another group - often - for obvious reasons
I made the decision for many good reasons and I like it for many good reasons
(Some not mentioned publicly 😊)
Let’s lift a glass of lemonade, wine or whatever and figure out how to keep cool next week. Cotton’s pool gets my vote.
All discussion welcome now that I’ve given my big beautiful side
