So. Went to the doctor. Like I suspected, my iron is low. Not dangerously low, but low enough that it's causing problems and we need to correct it.

Now I'm on iron pills for a few months; we'll see how that goes.

While I was there, I mentioned that it took me a while to realize that there was something wrong due to assuming it was just stress/depression due to layoffs. He went on a big tangent about greedy companies squeezing out profit endlessly etc. There was a picture of a lion on the wall, and he pointed to it, saying, "These guys, they don't keep hunting after they eat. After they eat, then they rest, they don't keep hunting. But these companies, well..." Ha. Anyway.

Going to have to adjust my diet a bit. "Meat, beets, and leafy greens" is what I need, according to him. Guess I'll need to take that into account when planning out my cooking.
