Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Hepatitis / March 20063rd Shot
Relatively uneventful weekend. The highest my fever gets is about 99.6 and I really don't feel too bad. The fever is usually gone by Monday evening. I've been able to eat normally although I usually don't have much of an appetite until Wednesday. Also, everything seems to taste like it has way too much salt in it. The one thing I have noticed more than anything is the anemia. My hemoglobin must be down considerably as it is all I can do to make it up a flight of stairs. If I try two flights, my legs are on fire and I'm panting heavily. It's a strange feeling not to have any stamina. Graham > The one thing I have noticed more than anything is the anemia. My yea it was about the 4th week I started to huff and puff...... that's the Riba blowing up your red blood cells....

Graham /////// Considering you just began tx this past weekend, I'd say it's a bit too early to be experiencing anemia. When do you see your doctor to have labs drawn. I would think he'd be testing you this Friday. elmo http://community.webtv.net/elmoemerson/DocElmosHepFile http://community.webtv.net/elmoemerson/TheFamilyAlbum > 3rd Shot > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > labs drawn. I would think he'd be testing you this Friday. > elmo I think Elmo is correct about this. It could just be the drugs are kicking your a.s, your body is adjusting to the onslaught of medication. It's worth looking into with your doctor. Are you taking a good multi vitamin since your diet has been poor? Find one without iron and lots' of folic acid, it should help keep your blood counts up. Hell, it may even make you feel better! dort And don't forget!! LOW SODIUM!!! Use sea-salt!! It has all the great taste and according to a recent consumer affairs study has as much as 60% less sodium than "Mined" salt. When I was first diagnosed my BCLD put me on a 1,200 mg's of sodium per day diet!!! After a week I could smell the salt on my wife's breath after eating popcorn at the movies!!! I even had her roll over so she would breath on me!!! No joke!!! hahaha....
