    - What was your Hemoglobin? -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jul 27, 21:26 1
      - I don't remember, and like a dork I didn't ask for the blood work results. But it was low enough for the doctor to order the two tests -- nm - Bacon Jul 27, 21:27
    - My Mom also has many polyps in her stomach so it's probably genetic. Her's don't bleed though. -- nm - Bacon Jul 27, 21:25 1
      - I got a nice set of pictures of mine too. -- nm - Bacon Jul 27, 21:26
