visit to Haematologist
A mix up with appointment time so had to go back again on Wednesday to see Haematologist. He gave me a good check over and now wants to see me in 2 months time instead of 1 month. When I finish the present card of weekly blood tests (3 to go) I'll go on fortnightly blood tests. He has also given me some special blood tests to be done about 2 weeks before my next appointment. Iron Studies, Vitamin B12, Folate, Thyroid and Haemochromatosis Gene Studies. One of my brother's had Haemochromatosis. My ferretin level was higher than normal before I started any transfusions but could be because of the MDS.
I am flying down to the Gold Coast on Monday for another treatment with the Physiospect and I'll be interested to see if I've made any progress.
