KNOWS about is what all is in that blood stuff!

I had lots and lots of choices for oconologists w/my cancer f/y treatments and well...I didn't pick the 'area' star regarding ocon issues...the Ocon I chose had a hema background...IN you got it? Immune issues...A solid background mind you...w/creds at places that one want's such docs to have them from! I'd 'interviewed' docs about this aspect and she [the ocon/hema] did NOT bat an eye about the CIDP [hey, knew enuf about it to ask the right questions about it?] and thyroid issues and was the one who got me to the right endo to deal with my bone loss issues [osteoporsis onset fast?] I had a rocky start w/this doc as the NP thought she knew more than I did about prescribing some auxiliary meds to offset s/e's from the post-cancer meds...[that caused the osteo] but once, she knew that I KNEW what all was going on, and wasn't gonna be a doormat..we are getting along fine....Thing is 'hitting' the communication issues at just the rite time...Sometimes impossible..other times you get lucky..I got lucky again..BUT I was persistent?! That this one doc says "I DUNNO?" and see X Y or ZZ? means that that DOC knows it's NOT in his comfort zone and wants INPUT...That means that doc want's help and from the best they know of...
I'd say go for it? My own first reaction was DANG! ANOTHER DOC for the 'list'?!!! Like I just need one more? But Checking out that practice...I was satisfied...the docs were active in research and what seemed to b e PROactive practice...Didn't just hang up a shingle and pretend...they were really 'into' it.. Soo, the Ocon/Hema referred me to the Endo who, I hope is getting me on the 'road' to better stuffs [IF ONLY I can chomp down all those calcium thingies?]

INteresting, the anemia issue? I'd always been anemic until I had mono a loong time ago...since then I've not been..ever? Lo at times [know now because of the constant blood testings] I'm now taking the pre-natal vites to keep the B-6 goblin at bay, but, at the same time I'm getting extra iron in asorbable types...Sooo, what could be a new issue? I sure hope not...But worth a consideration for you maybe?

Back to the hematologist parts of your concerns...heck, what's ONE more doc at this point? I really FEEL for my GP at this point, the specialists aren't all talking to the GP. Actually I see the GP less than all the specs....So if issues happen..I really don't know which 'Ghostbuster' to call? Scary prospects... HUGS and all for sure - j
