Krista and I want to thank all of you for your prayers. It turns out that Krista has iron deficiency anemia. The same diagnosis as her doctor here.
The problem: Krista was prescribed an acid-reflux medication a couple years ago that prevents the acid in her stomach to absorb the iron (food or supplement). The Mayo doctor is placing her on a different medication that will allow maximum absorption. As long as Krista follows the doctor's directions on taking the medicine, she should be back to normal levels in 6 months. On a plus note, the doctor did say that from everything he can see from Krista's medical record-she's receiving excellent medical care in Ames-WOOHOO! Praise God!
