Normalization of Bodily Functions

Had a rough couple of days. My body started to "normalize" itself, i.e., normal female biologic function decided to reaffirm itself after being subdued for two years. Was caught off guard and my body became severely iron depleted. Not a good thing when you are anemic to start with. So, physically, I became severely weak and pale.
Frightened a few of my new friends at the treatment facility. They thought I suffered a major set back. I was too weak to even reassure them that I was okay and that there was a perfectly reasonable explanation. Embarrassed as well. I took a few iron pills, ate a ton of spinach and am now feeling much better. Explanations abound the very next day.
Okay, at least now I know this thing is happening again. Not sure it's such a great thing. Didn't miss it all but its kinda reassuring to know that my body is reestablishing its usual functions. Ha-ha!
