Geez Simple, I'm sorry to hear your blood issues continue, and that there's not much they can do right now. Did they tell you to try and eat iron-rich foods to see if that helps since they can't give you the meds for it? Sounds like you need a bigger boost than food might normally provide, but it's worth a shot to help the cause. I just hate to hear you have to endure more blood work, tests, doctors, etc. That's no fun at all and also difficult to pull off when you work F/T. Quoting: KickinIt They didn't tell me to, but I will because that's really all I can do for now. It's just so strange to me because I've been eating more normally for a while now. When my iron was too high, I was literally barely eating at all. I have a major colonoscopy fear lol. I really don't want to have to have one anytime soon, but that (and an endoscopy) are likely in my near future. Sedation please!!! Quoting: Simple27 I fear both of those things. The endoscopy more, simply because you're awake for that. They would absolutely have to sedate me to do one of those. I hope you don't have to have either. I can't figure out what either of those would rule out based on your problem though. |

My blood is just completely out of whack. I saw the hematologist today and we went over my blood test results from Monday. My ongoing problem (for years now) is that my hemoglobin and hematocrit are too high. They’ll drain blood out of me and within a period of weeks to a couple of months my levels are right back up there. I have a handful of consistent symptoms that make life a bit less comfortable, to say the least. Although they can’t diagnose me with polycythemia vera (a rare blood cancer) they’ve been ‘treating’ me for it now for a couple of years. The blood work I had done on Monday came back showing that my levels were only slightly elevated (hemoglobin & hematocrit). That was surprising to me because I haven’t had my blood drained since December. Normally those levels would be a lot higher than they were. The problem…my iron profile test. My ferritin level is very low, transferrin is high (out of range), TIBC is high (out of range), iron saturation is low (out of range), unsaturated iron binding capacity is high (out of range). My iron has somehow plummeted. And my ‘stored’ iron is getting very low. All prior iron profile tests came back with too much iron, which makes sense with my high hemoglobin/hematocrit. So this is weird. I have iron deficiency without anemia. With anemia, hemoglobin levels would be low. Mine isn’t, although it wasn’t as high as it normally would have been, it was still out of range high. The bigger problem…they can’t give me iron supplements because that will make my already high hemoglobin even higher, and they can’t drain my blood now because my iron will drop even lower. Ugh, wtf. Zero relief is what this means in a nutshell. Plus some extra fatigue. For at least the next two months before I repeat the blood work for a follow up. Like, wtf does that accomplish? Let's do nothing at all because 'we can't' and then repeat the same blood work in 2 months. Awesome. I'm sure this will feel wonderful physically. Just keep on kicking that can down the damn road docs! I’m being referred to a GI doctor because of the iron drop. Something’s very wrong inside of me. :\ NOT looking forward to the testing the GI docs do. FML Quoting: Simple27 FWIW, you're added to mine. "I have no special talents.
