Teeth HEy Lizzie!

IT is soooooooooooooooo great to hear from you! Are you OK?

I have spoken with every dr I have - 5 to be exact - my GP, internist, neuro, hema, and pulm...........

I see my hema every 2 weeks for blood work.......he doesn't seem that concerned, but my neuro is FABULOUS and will have me tested for everything!

What would be my symptoms if my kidmeys were giving me problems? Are yours OK? I try and drink water/tea/juice/ all day long......just to keep them going - especially while I'm having my monthly IV IG - I have heard that can be really hard on them......

Enough about me - what;s been going on with you? Are you better now?

Big hugs!
Erin

Have you spoke with your doctors about this, and what do they say, and or do?
I Have to give myself ProCrit Injections, and I just finished Iron Infusions. 4 weeks worth. So, make sure your kidneys are okay, it could be them causing the problem.
What meds are you on, as meds can cause kidney damage, and then your iron count can get really low.
I can't remember what my ferritin level was, but that's why I was concerned about your kidneys.
Love Lizzie
