Here in the UK I’ve had to struggle to get copies of my blood counts from GPs and specialists alike. At the moment one of the clinical nurse specialists on the team at SASH ( Redhill) will

High ferritin post transplant
I had my now 6 monthly blood test the other day with a follow up call from a haematologist a few days later. My results were all ok except for my ferritin, which at 3000, the Dr said was on the high side and booked me in for venesection once a month for the next 3 months. When I asked why that might

Dr's can't seem to get to the bottom of my problem. I'm front line Ambulance crew so I'm tired anyway. I've had cameras in both ends to no

Am I feeling normal or is this a new normal?
I find it difficult to comprehend what I went through 4 months ago. I had a cesarean section complication under general aneastetic which ended in me heamoraging twice, losing 3.8 litres of blood, 7 blood transfusions while on the operating table to keep my blood up and an induced coma and ventilated

brain radiation, delayed treatments, seizures
