I'm Bummed

[Ahumado]

I ran my CBC tonight and the Hgb is only 9.7 almost 8 weeks out of surgery. I wish it was 12 or 13. I have an appointment with my family doc this week so I will she what she says. Man I'm tired. :frown::frown:

Boo. Hope you see more improvement soon -- hang in there! You'll need your strength to fight the lion, no tiger, no lion, no... after all.

You have had your terminal ileum out right?

Have blood tests for B12, Folate and Iron stores. You should probably be on B12 injections and perhaps even some Folic Acid supplementation as well. It is most likely deficiencies in these areas that are contributing to your anaemia and fatigue.

Dusty.

Thanks Guys. My attitudes better today and my wife reminded me that stable isn't bad. I like the thought about the B12 and Folate which I will ask my Doc about

I had a B12 and Folate run. Both are normal. That's good and I am on Ferrous Sulfate to help boost the iron. The other junk wasn't what it quacked itself up to be.
