Hi Holly, sorry to hear that your anxious. Did your GP specify what type of blood infection?

[catwoman2015 in reply to mhos61]

Hi no she didnt , only that not to worry and redo blood test

Hi Holly, you just seem to have had a run of blips...I just think you are amazing Holly, and I am sure you will be fine the GP will make sure of that.

Hi I'm the same ET on Asprin and going for second blood test at GP tomorrow for possible under active Thyroid!! It started because I had a tingling sensation across my lips just like an injection waring off at the Dentist and he took bloods and checked me over!!? We still don't know what the numb/ tingling was it's gone away mostly but I feel it slightly!!? Who knows!!? I had just stopped seeing the haematologist too and told to have my bloods done at the GP and they would look at them on line. Hope you are fine.

Hi holly, what an awful time you are having, hope repeat bloods are better. Did they put you on antibiotics for infection ?

Best wishes lainy xx

[Inca]

Sorry it disappeared,thought I was the way out! A repeat test this month and the scary things have put themselves right....we have such an up and down maladie and queer blood results sometimes,sure the H U is the culprit,but we need it don't we..Worry not things put themselves right usually Best to you X Sally

Hope all was well this time Holly.My problem was not infection when the problem arose.

[Inca]

Disappeared again,sorry,having a few problems with I pad as well! My platelets had dropped ,and stomacytes found and another thing that I cannot translate,H C T also 54,my Dr was baffled,got in touch with consultant....to cut short,they decided to wait for my next monthly test...this time,the gremlins had gone ,HCT still high but down one point and platelets up a little ,out of danger ...just.My P V is not following a P V pattern,I think my Drs are not sure what is going on...An accidental small nip from my dog when we were playing with his ball,I was hospitalised immediately in case of blood infection.

Gone again,shall give up,Very best .Sally
