See doc soon: Please see your primary doctor, or your OBG as soon as you can (not a panic, but soon.) It may be nothing but there's real cause to worry about anemia with so much bleeding. If you can't see your regular doctor(s) go to a walk-in clinic (e.g., Texas Med); as a last resort go to ER. Don't delay too long.
