Experiences with

Haemolytic anaemia

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.

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.

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?

As anyone had a Buscopan injection before a colonoscopy, concerned as have AFib, Hypothyroidism and Haemolytic Anaemia. Is it necessary to have one of these injections?

I saw the rheumatologist this morning and I liked her a lot. She diagnosed shoulder impingement with a possibility of PMR. She has asked for further tests and ultrasound scans to get a full picture. She also asked me to do quite a rapid taper for 3 weeks off P before blood tests as she wants to see how

I am new to this site but have found some great information. (especially from Sue :)). I have all the typical symptoms of Augmentation from Ropinirol and am on the maximum dose 4mg (1.5mg at 2pm to try to decrease early onset symptoms and 2.5mg at 7pm) GP just doesn't have enough knowledge and I would

The validity of tests using fingerprick blood samples has long been questioned. Some claiming they are unusably awful. Others claiming tests are as good as those done on venous blood. It is good to see a paper which has researched the questions. Unfortunately, while they did include TSH, they did not

Hi all,I was just wondering. I know you need MMTHFR, folate, iron ect..., but whay does the number or level does instrinic test mean? If any

I have been 'lucky' to get B12 ampoules on prescription but I suspect (although I'm not surprised) that my GP is showing signs of withdrawing this prescription. I have just seen on my patient record that a GP at my surgery has sent a letter to the B12 specialist in Cambridge to ask: 1. What is the duration

My Platelet count on my three monthly blood test has gone from 201 to 160 do they increase again or keep going down.? WBC is now 57.8 and Lymphocytes 53.5 Heamoglobin 140 Neutrophils 3.6 Basophils 0.2. Thanks

As some of you on the forum will know from my earlier posts I have been able to successfully block my severe RLS with buprenorphine patches (10-15mcg/hr). What I have not been able to prevent has been the nausea side effects. Initially I seemed to have found a way to block the nausea by halving the

5th November 2024 Serum TSH level - (amr) - 14.9 mu/L 0.27 - 4.20mu/L Full blood count - FBC - (amr) ! Haemoglobin estimation 157 g/L 120.00 - 150.00g/L Total white cell count

My platelets are now under 600, just! A big improvement from when they were over 1000 a few weeks ago. Local doctor wants me to carry on with Momelotinib and hydroxy, plus EPO injections. My haemoglobin had dropped from 109 to 98 though, still a lot better than the 75 - 85 it was for a very long time

Thanks to advice on here (particularly   SlowDragon, many thanks) I've got my act together and bought the below and wondered if there's anything I need to know about what time to take them. I've got: Bioactive B12 (Nature Provides) Basic B Complex (Thorne) - I recall advice to add in a week after

Hello, my medication was switched to Teva, I’ve never really taken notice before of what brand, but I’ve been taking for 5 days and feel like all my symptoms of having an under active thyroid have returned. The only change I’ve made is the different tablets. Could it be the brand? I’m on exactly the

https://youtu.be/9lb_Js5KMq4?si=0sBd0Bc8XxZA4NqUI watched this and wondered are our problems, fatigue, inflammation etc. to do with toxic build up of homocysteine? I already take B12, of course by injection, B9 l-methylfolate and B6 (though not p5p sort in a larger dose). I take a methyl B complex too
