Experiences with

Haemolytic anaemia

The cause of this is presently being investigated however in doing my own research I read that levodopa can cause haemolytic anaemia. I wonder if anyone else has had the same experience and if so what was done to treat the problem.

The diagnosis was Haemolytic anaemia. Feeling weary but ok .Love and strength to all.

Also, overlap between anaemia of chronic disease/inflammation, and autoimmune haemolytic anaemia (a rare immune disorder). Skin biopsy conclusively proved Sweet's syndrome. Treated with colchicine. Ultrasound scan revealed a cervical mass. MRI confirmed stage 2 cervical cancer.

Two further Aortic Valve Replacements, a Mitral Valve replacement and subsequent repair, complete Heart Block, Permanent AF, Endocarditis, L to R Shunt, on the 3rd Pacemaker, Haemolytic Anaemia, Stage 4 CKD.

On May 31 a haematologist wrote to my GP following tests on March 5 to say that "it is likely [that I have] cardiac haemolytic anaemia". But on April 30 and on July 23, I had blood tests at A & E (to where I went with exhaustion) and was told I was NOT anaemic.

He also doubted his colleagues' diagnosis of cardiac haemolytic anaemia, though they themselves say that my blood readings don't explain the periods of deep fatigue I have from to time. (This morning at 6am I feel good.)

I have been on W&W since 2018 but in this last year have had four admissions to hospital with Auto Immune Haemolytic Anaemia, all admissions required blood transfusions and I felt pretty poorly with breathlessness, fatigue and very low Hb.

My own research brings up haemolytic anaemia, another autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks red blood cells. Thank you all in advance 🙏☺️

Eventually NHS Haematology diagnosed cardiac haemolytic anaemia, but not before two visits to A & E.

I have congenital haemolytic anaemia ( pyruvate kinase deficiency) with associated iron overload. I am 68 years old. Should I be having antibody tests? Which medication shoul I be on? Is there anything I can do to assist myself?

Hey all, Just wondered if it’s okay to take Three Arrows iron at the same time as a methyfolate supplement? I did google it as I know iron can affect absorption of other supps but can’t find an answer. I’ve decided to go ahead and start supp’ing everything I’m lacking (results in prev post) I’m

I can't understand why my haemoglobin levels drop so quickly when there is an SLE flare. Can anyone give any tips on the maintenance of haemoglobin? I have had an iron infusion which has helped massively, but feel my levels have dropped. I have another blood test this week. Iron tablets are not the

My most recent oncologist appointment was very encouraging. Since I started taking Brukinsa (zanubrutinib), my white blood count has been coming down from a high several months ago of 133K, it is now at 61K and has been dropping about 15 points monthly! The corresponding lymphocyte count is now in the

I have always had very low blood pressure to the point of having to add extra salt to my diet. I have been taking 50mg of iron bigylcinate every night which does help me sleep and diminish my RLS. But now my blood pressure as risen to the 130-140/70s and I am wondering if I am getting too much iron

Hi there, ever since embarking on clean keto my cholesterol has risen and I was diagnosed with NAFLD. I also have had slightly elevated liver enzymes for a year now. Anyone else experience this? I am stopping keto and going back to how I used to eat which included good complex carbs

Hi - I had a right hemicolectomy for neuroendocrine cancer (tumour in my terminal ileum) in April '24. The previous December (Dec '23) i went to my GP with mouth ulcers that wouldn't heal and after a blood test was diagnosed with a Folate deficiency and prescribed folic acid. Following that I was really

Hi I've joined to maybe get some advice as I don't feel well. I am seeing my doctor as I'm feeling fatigued, generally weak and my coordination seems off. When I give blood my Haemoglobin is always border line, I can only just get through to donate. They say my iron is low and to see my doctor.

Diagnosed with pernicious anemia in June. Just found out that my ferritin dropped to 10 after doing B12 shots for 7 months. Have been feeling very tired, dizzy, and having vision issues (floaters, blurry vision, etc.). Should I supplement iron in addition to b12 shots or pause b12 shots and supplement

good morning, I am wondering if taking a multi vitamin and mineral supplement would be too much along with the cofactors that we need to take with our B12 I take methyl folate , iron, vit d, mk7, potas, and mag. and B12. I'm starting my 8th month inj. and am able to handle more of the cofactors now.

Good that the article has been published - but they should not have missed the different forms of B6 which might be very important. [i]Simon never linked the pain in his hands and feet to multivitamins – but a pathology test did[/i][i]A growing number of consumers are presenting with symptoms
