Going in for an IV at 3.5 weeks out.
I heard back from the doctor about my labs and she ordered IV fluids at the infusion center at the hospital. No anemia, just blood volume depletion, this causing the super low blood pressures. My appointment is at 3:00 today. Heading over soon.
Just wanted to update you all in case anyone else has this issue.
Other than that, feeling great!!!

Hi Renee,
Glad you got some answers, hope the IV was a great success. Hydrating is not as easy as it sometimes seems like it should be. I am online right now as I drink the last of today's water--it may be a bit obsessive but I do not let myself go to bed until I have made my daily goal.
all the best, Katy
