Bright spots.

A few times in the last couple weeks my vision has gone slightly blurry, with bright spots that last about 3-5 minutes. The spots look like stars in the sky (only description I could come up with). Along with lightheadedness, and nausea.

Anyone else experiencing this? I'm going to bring it up with my doctor at my next appointment. I'm thinking it has something to do with my iron.

I think that's a sign of low iron. You could be anemic. I just found out today that I'm very anemic and I've been experiencing that same thing along with some other stuff that I was told ties into needing more iron.
