Question: I think im anemic!!? can someone please read this and confirm-preferably a doctor!!?
So i went on this trip to europe with a group and some leaders for 3 weeks!. it was amazing!. But the food wasnt!. we only had pasta 3 times and we were in italy!. we mostly had potatoes, breaded chicken and bread!. it was all the cheap stuff at each restaurant!. i only had veggies like 3x and pretty much consisted of the last two days of the trip! before the trip i ran and biked like i usually do, did pilates and ate my colorful meals like normal!. i expected to eat lots of veggies, but wound up eating crap and i only pooped twice in 3 weeks! i pooped everyday before that trip!. towards the end i got drained and sick one day and i began being cold alot more when it was like 90-110 so i think my body just kind of lost it during that transition!. could i be anemic now!? i always researched that and i never had most of the symptoms!. but i got home and wanted to ride my bike so bad but now im always tired and cold when its like 80 and my mom wants me to go to a doc and get bloodwork!. i eat alright, but i still only poop every other day and i havent been drinking my water like crazy anymore!. so i have all of the symptoms, nothing crazy tho like the nails and pale skin tho!. please if you can help me that would be great!. i would hate to help people(read my profile) and tell them what to eat and how often to exercise when i can barely roll out of bed each day!. its summer and i wanted to get my back and ready for spring track so i need to fix this! if you want more info just email me!Www@Answer-Health@Com

LOL It's not permanent anemia!. You are probably slightly anemic, but it sounds more like nutritional shock!. The best thing to do is get beck to your usual diet and exercise routine as soon as possible!. It will be hard, but the longer you wait, the harder it will be!. Boost your iron and vitamin C intake!.!.!. Eat more green veggies!. You will be fine, but it may take about a month to get back on track!. I did the same thing one summer!. Not in Italy, but the family I stayed with were German, and ate lots of potatoes and buttered bread and fried apples, etc!. Took me a good month of very hard work to get back on track!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Doctors don't hang out on Yahoo Answers, babe!. They hang out at doctors' offices, which is where you should go to talk to one!. Any time you have a serious medical concern, you need to turn to somebody with an education in medicine, not to the internet!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Sounds to me like you're just exhausted!.
It's pretty normal to have "irregular" poops when you go overseas!. Being jetlagged and out of your normal eating, diet and comfort routine can often cause this!. Once you've been home for a while, that should settle down (once every two days is not abnormal, BTW)!.
Feeling cold when it's warm outside!? That just sounds like you might have a mild fever!. Again, not so unusual with that type of travel, especially if you're worn down!.
My job is travelling overseas!. That's what I do for a living!. I'm not a substitute for a doctor (though I'm married to one!), but what you've described sounds like the classic symptoms after a 3 week overseas holiday for being jetlagged, worn out, off your normal diet, and catching a virus/cold - something I've gone through dozens of times!Www@Answer-Health@Com
