Don't panic everyone... But...Am getting majorly freaked out because of this news story that appeared yesterday:

www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/health/article2726898.ece

ww w.food.gov.uk/news/newsarchive/2007/oct/lambasda

Basically, it seems some lambs have illegally been sold for meat when they were not fit for eating because they had only recently been injected with nasty drugs - including one that is particularly dangerous to pregnant women because it can cause fetal abnormalities...

I have eaten loads of lamb/other red meat over past few weeks because I am trying to treat my anaemia... So now am obviously quite freaked out!! From now on until the FSA have traced all the contaminated meat, I'm not eating any more lamb!
