I hope they can at least put you on Epoiten (sp)?. It's a red blood cell stimulator. And iron.
What is your hemoglobin and hematocrit levels?
when they first found the problem last monday my hb was 6.2 (normal is 12-15) and crit was 20( normal is around 45). when I was checked in the er on saturday the hb had come up to 7.4 and the crit was 24 so coming up. I am on iron twice daily as well as a multi vit. they did mention checking my epoiten level before using that (something I've not heard of)
been a long day, hitting the hay early, really tired tonight.
