Does anyone else get low hemoglobin and have manic depressive mood swings if they don't eat tons of protein?

I realized after a few years of being sick that if I don't eat A LOT of protein (IE: I eat steaks for snacks), I get very depressed and negative and have manic crying spells. My hemoglobin also drops rather quickly. Another lady I know got Lyme disease at the same time I did and she didn't eat much protein and her hemoglobin went down to a 5 and she had to get two pints of blood. My mom told her about me and she realized it was probably the Lyme's. Talked to my Dr about it. She believes me but hasn't figured out why. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? #LymeDisease #ChronicLymeDisease #lymeproblems #ChronicIllness #DepressiveDisorders #IronDeficiencyAnemia #question

What do you TELL people?

And here's another thought... how do you explain to your employer why you've been so sick the last few days? #hrproblems #Work #nooneunderstands #lymeproblems
