Cold/Flu
Hi Friends,
My dad just came down with cold/flu like symptoms (sniffles, runny nose) yesterday and took the over the counter medicine, Contact. I am a little concerned because Contact has that ingredient, Acetaminophen, that affects the liver.
My dad had a Liver Function Panel conducted on 07/06/07 where his Bilirubin level was at a 1.2.
I just e-mailed our hematologist but does anyone have any experiences with a cold or flu with MDS? Or any suggestions of what to do or not to do?
Thank you
