Anemia Due To Heavy Periods - Tired And Racing Heart

I recently had 2 iron infusions. My iron level was previously a 6 and my B12 is super low as well. I was always tired, had a racing heart, craved popsicles and bruised super easily. The main cause is that I have extremely heavy periods.

My concern is that it has been 7 weeks since my last infusion and I am bruising more than ever. ..I brush by something and get a big bruise. I'm embarrassed to wear shorts...I'm not as tired as before and no more heart palpitations. I had an appt for a follow up last week and they did more blood work to recheck my iron and B12 levels. I should have the results monday. BUT my concern is all of these bruises...what could be going on? I've been tested for some genetic iron disorder and that was negative as well as the other disorder (I forget the name---it mainly affects those of Mediterranean descent ).

Abdominal Pain :: Farting / Flatulence, Belching And Feeling Tired And Weak

The problem starts 6 years ago and it was accompanied with severe gastric problem. The problem with my gastric is better after taking H-pylori. But I feel severe pain if I eat beans specifically lentil and drink any fraction of alcohol. I also made check up for ulcer through endoscopy and the result indicates that I don’t have any ulcer in my gastric.

This time I am feeling more tired and weak throughout the day. I am also having the feeling to go to the toilet frequently but most of the time nothing is going out except farting.

Ulcerative Colitis :: Constantly Feel Tired

Just wondering if anyone else feels the same with this tiredness. Sometimes I will be fine then all of a sudden my eyes will want to close for around 5 mins then I will be fine. I'm always yawning and fall asleep a lot more if I simply lie down or watch TV. I haven't changed the times in which I go to bed recently so I'm not losing sleep, I've tried going to bed earlier but it makes no difference. It's making getting up for work really difficult.

Autoimmune Disorders :: Tired Of Being Sick And Tired

I have been having joint pain, general body pain, fatigue, depression and anxiety for years. I was dx with fibro about 3 years ago. It was first suspected almost 20 years ago. My mouth and eyes are painfully dry. My lips constantly crack. I recently had a PAP done and the GYN remarked how dry my vagina was (I'm not sexually active so I never noticed).

I recently saw a rheumatologist here in the State (I had previously seen one in Korea). She did a bunch of blood work. My Vit D was 28 (reference range was 30-70). RF, ANA were negative. CRP not done, but has been elevated in the past (multiple draws over a two year period, but none in the last year). ESR was 58 and has been elevated for 20 years (I went through a lot of blood work in high school and nothing was ever found, but it was with ID, not Rheum).

Rheum was next to useless. She said the sed rate wasn't relevant and that there was no need to worry about the Vit D (which was lower in the past) even though I was taking 2000 IU a day.

After talking to my GP, he had me increase the D supplement to 4000 IU/day. He also wrote me a new referral to a different rheum. This one specializes in seronegative arthritis.

I try to be an informed consumer. Current rheum just wants to throw more pills at the issue without getting to the root of it. It seems like if I go in with a fibro dx, everything must be fibro. How do I approach this new appointment (in September!!) to finally figure things out? This new doctor will be in the UH system as are all my other docs. I think she'll have access to previous lab results, if not I can pull them up in my EMR.

I could use words of wisdom, advice, a kick in the butt (if necessary), etc.

Anemia :: Bruising With Anemia?

I noticed that I bruise very easily lately. I was told back in February I had very low iron so was taking 325 mg of iron (ferrous sulfate) 3x a day! I took this for 3 months, had my iron levels checked AGAIN and my iron went DOWN MORE instead of up!

I was having major leg cramping at night-- that has gone down since I've been taking a muscle relaxer EVERY night due to my TMJ acting up at the same time. I am still taking iron supplements and trying to eat more iron but due to TMJ it is hard at times. I drink TONS of water.

I have had itchy legs in the evening so I scratch them and I noticed the other day my thigh, the outside of my right thigh (quadricep really) is BRUISED, like bad! I also notice small bruises on my ankle bones which I have NO clue where I get them from. I see my doc again next week and will bring this up. Anyone else have this going on? I also black out a lot when I stand up, but that has been going on for years. Usually if I get up too fast.

p.s. my thyroid and kidney function came back normal. I had a whole panel done, with blood work. I think my vitamin D was a little low but I take extra of that with calcium at night.

Lupus :: Tired Of Being Tired All The Time

i am new to these discussions but I do know how many of you feel. I have mentioned that I was diagnosed with mixed connective disease, lupus, fibromyalgia and who the hell knows what else. I can't work becuause if I sit to long, my legs start falling asleep. If I stand to long, my legs start aching. I feel exhausted all the time like when I wake up in the morning, I could just as easily go back to bed and sleep my entire life away. I wish there was something in a bottle that gave you energy. I miss my old life when I used to work out all the time and had enough energy for 10 people and then one morning I woke up and couldn't bend my leg back, it just wouldn't work so my family doctor sent me to a rheumatoidologist and he is the one that took all my blood from my body, that's what it feels like sometimes, and gave me the great news of having all these diseases but no medication seemed to work. I went to another rheumatoidologist and he put me on Lyrica which helps my upper joints but my legs were in such pain I felt like it was to much to even walk down the hall. Now along with my family doctor, my rheumatologist and my pain doctor, I take Lyrica for joint pain and oxycodone and fentenal patches for pain, especially when my mixed connective disease starts up, it just brings my systemic lupus to life and I get the butterfly rashes mostly on my upper arms which adds to my stress which makes my fibro flare up and gives me pain in my legs and then it just starts over. It seems to be a cycle especially when it's hot. I also start sweating like I was in a sauna all day just on my head and face. People look at me like did you know your sweating like a pig. It's embarrassing but I don't know what to do about that so I put ice on my head at night to keep my head cool so I won't start swearing. I've never had that problem before but only since these diseases came and decided to stop on my little doorstep. I am a true believer that stress can cause all sorts of bad things including diseases. I am just going to try to start yoga but I have to absolutely force myself to do this. I start next week. The worse thing I could have done 12 years ago when I was diagnosed with all this crap was to stop exercising.

Thyroid :: Tired Of Being Tired

Here's a brief background and symptoms I've been having. I've been a migraine sufferer since my preteens. Mainly migraines with aura but also morning headaches etc. about 7 yrs ago I gained 40 lbs very quickly over a 1-2 yr period and was exhausted all the time. I went to pcp office and saw a dr other than my own. She commented on my weight gain like she was appalled and asked if I was depressed. I did not feel depressed just frustrated mostly. She did a tsh test and said it was normal. I was also having what I was told was possibly ibs (mostly d but also c) and have dealt with this for the past 7 yrs as well. Skip ahead a couple years I noticed a correlation between the ibs and eating gluten products. I visited with my dr and he had me get a celiac panel. The results came up negative. I should also mention I was eating gf before the test so wonder how that may have effected the results. Fall/winter 2011 I was extremely fatigued, sore joints, muscle aches, hard time falling and staying asleep, noticed cold bothering me more ( I live in New England) so in January I found a new dr near where I lived. He basically said that it may be seasonal affective disorder even tho I told him I really didn't feel depressed just exhausted. After basic bloodwork as well as tsh and the wrong vitamin d test he said all was normal, get some rest. All I could think was gee thanks. So I saw another dr shortly after who was great but he tested me for Lyme and lupus which were both neg and also the correct vit d test which showed I was at a 6 and severely deficient. After a few months 50000 iu and then continued 1000 iu daily with some results of less fatigue. A couple months ago I started to feel the extreme leg cramps again, joint pain especially in knees and wrist, extreme fatigue as well as new symptoms of ringing in ears, dry scaly skin that I can literally rub off. I have always lost a lot of hair with showering and brushing but it seems like more lately. I called my pcp and asked for another vit d test thinking it may be related. come to find out it was a 17 so not as low as before but still low. I've done a little research and I feel like it could be hypothyroidism but I am unsure exactly what I should request for tests from my dr. I don't want to waste money on something if it doesn't seem needed. Any advice would be greatly welcome. I am just tired of being tired and frustrated.

Anemia :: How To Get Some Vitamin C?

My most recent hemogram shows that my ferritin is at 0.7, and that scared the pants out of me. I also have low hemoglobin, my serum iron is nearly at normal levels, just a few points below normal. I have to wait for my doctor to come from his medical absence before I can show him the tests.

Until then I'm taking the iron supplements I was prescribed 2 months ago. I want to take some vitamin C to help with the absorption, but I have a little issue: I'm allergic to citric acid, so orange juice or other citrus fruits are out of the question.

Any suggestions on what I should eat to give my iron levels a push? Or should I just get a vitamin C supplement as well?

Anemia And Thyroid

OK here whats going on with my health.in 2009 I had what drs told me it was "panic attack" later on started feeling depressed along with body aches and nausea and lost of appetite and headaches. Well I was told it was caused by depression so was prescribe drugs .i had them a few weeks but stopped taking them because they were just making me feel really sick .I was diagnosed with lupus in 2011. Before being diagnosed with lupus it took several yrs for doctors to diagnosed me with lupus. They did several lupus test until it finally showed up. Few yrs ago I started noticing that when I would swallow something in my throat would bother me and was dealing with hoarseness but drs didn't really care about it.in 2012 I went to see my Dr about stomach discomfort and some chest pains and too much gas and was told I probably had an ulcer so prescribe me some meds. Never cared to take them. Last yr September 2015 I went to see my new Dr about feeling tired,sleepy,nauseous,lost of appetite,lightheaded,insomnia, stomach discomfort,headaches. She did blood work and told me to go back in two wks. Well for some reason I never went back sooo I ended up going back last week for the same feelings except worse.I was now feeling dizzy,anxious,sad/depressed, brain fog,aches on legs and arms,fainting feeling,heart palpitation just out of it. Lucky I got to my Dr office safe because I would feel dizzy while driving. Well Dr noticed I never went back in sept to get blood results so she tells me that they have been calling me to let me know I was anemic and my thyroid was off. The calling part was mybfault because I changed my phone number and never called the Dr to change it. Well no wonder I have been feeling this way and worse! So she has me do another blood work and tells me to go back and see her in two wks and gave me iron pills. Have to take 2 a day 325 mg. And some stool softener pills and some meds for my ulcer. Today is Tuesday and still need to wait 6 more days to see my Dr. My problem is that I'm not feeling very well and my depression is getting worse and my anxiety too and all these other symptoms too excepts the dizziness has calmed down a little but still get dizzy. I also noticed teeth marks on the side of my tongue. Don't know if my tongue has gotten a little swollen since ei have the marks. My question is if she noticed I was anemic last yr why wouldn't she just prick my finger and see how low I have it. What if I need a blood transfusion. She didn't give me anything for my thyroid so what if that's the reason why I'm feeling really sluggish and really depress. The more the days go by the more depress and anxious that I get .i have trouble taking naps during the day because I don't feel right. I have 5 kids to take care of and I can't focus on them 100% because I'm feeling bad. Can't wait to see my Dr and see the results of my iron and thyroid. I never had issues with my thyroid now it seems like I do. Could it be because of my lupus. Keep in mind I never took meds for my lupus or my ulcer so there are no meds that could interfere with the blood work. I am a person that believes in taking supplements instead of drugs but the way I am feeling I am willing to take anything to make me feel better again because its not fare that my littles ones have to ask my older kids that they want something because I'm laying on the sofa feeling really Bad
