Even though John had iron overload, it was only up to 4600. I don't know about the spots. If they are bruises, we found warm moist heat would help clear them up faster. Do they go away eventually?


Are they going to start you on desferral? If they don't know what to do, then they should consult with another doc with experience or refer you out someone who does.
