When I yawn, I know I am sleepy or I have lesser oxygen in my brain.

I kept on yawning since this afternoon. I satisfied my eyes by tking a nap, but when I woke up, I still kept on yawning. I checked my palpebral conjunctiva and it is pale.
I therefore thought I have lesser hemoglobin in my body which is manifested by my frequent yawning and pale conjunctivae.
I believe my blood should not be thick or viscous with too much iron content. In fact, my blood should be thin in composition for fear of producing thrombus or embolus.
Coumadin in action, that is why, I should have my check-up on Wednesday.

@ridingbet Yes, we bought a pulse oximeter, they are not very expensive, but at least we can check our parameters at home, we also have an electronic sphygmomanometer, my husband has very low blood pressure, he checks every day.

@LadyDuck for me, my brother bought this aneroid sphygmomanometer. i sometimes let my son check my BP because i am taking aldactone 2x a week.
i check my conjunctiva if i feel weak. that is ny gauge if i am anemic

honey or sugar should belong to the glow group. it energizes us. so i think the energy should be present when taking honey.

What I know is when yawning, our brain needs more oxygen.

not always. it may be due to sleep deprivation.
