Hi, I am a new member. My husband has MDS.
I would like to receive some information regarding to Iron Overload.
My husband was diagnosed with RAEB after the bone marrow biopsy back in 2009.
His hematologist recommended supportive care due to my husband's other health issues.
He has been transfusion dependant from the end of 2009 up till now, receiving 2 units every 3 weeks,
sometimes every 2 weeks.
He has been taken Exjade.
The lab result on Sep 2nd showed his Ferritin @2468.
Last week, Sep 22th, my husband was hospitalized due to Sepsis. Another CBC / blood culture was ordered.
Now, the ferritin @6755.
Our primary care dr. wanted us to see Gastroenterology, the latest lab result which was done on Sep/27th..
the numbers were elevated
Bilirubin 9.1, Alkaline 430, Ast 75, Alt 128
The older lab result from sep/2nd..
Bilirubin 0.5, Alkaline 106, Ast 31, Alt 68
Is it possible for Ferritin to increase that high in 20+ days?
Does infection in blood cause a fault lab result?
Could you please advice / share information.
My sincere thanks.
