Morgan Running?

Just as an update after six weeks of not running, Morgan's stress fractures healed and she was able to start running. She started off slow and when she would pick up the pace she would get nauseated and throw up. We realized that at the State meet she didn't have the flu at all. Something was not right with her body. This happened everytime she ran, she was getting very sick. If we had her run on a empty stomach she would still dry heave. I took her back in to the doctor after talking to a friend of my mom's who is a doctor. He said to check her iron again. I took her back in and asked again for an iron test and it all came back normal. I found out that you have to ask for a ferratin iron test to really check her iron. Her iron is at a 5 which is so below normal we are lucky Morgan is still here and didn't collapse or have a heart attack on a run. That explains why back in March she would complain of being sick. We found out that your injuries triple when your iron gets to a 12 let alone a 5 explaining why we got stress fractures this last season. I just wish a doctor would have figured that out a long time ago and done the correct iron test when I asked for it. Morgan is now going to take some more time off to get her iron levels back up and hopefully get her body back on track and she didn't do any permanent damage to her body.
