My mother is 50 years of age. She recently had a blood test which says a low Heamoglobin of 5 and ESR of nearly 70. She frequently suffers from stomach pain(lower right side). 5 years back her gall bladder had to be removed. What can be the reason? Is there something to worry about?
Hi, your hemoglobin level is very low. And ESR is very high. You should go for urgent investigation and treatment. Go for CBC and PS examination. And search for the cause of love HE. it may be some deficiency or hemolysis or bleeding from any site or anything. Also consult your doctor for stomach pain and if needed go for USG. You need immediate diagnosis and treatment. Otherwise much life threatening complication may occur at this love HE level. Go to the doctor and take treatment. Thanks for using Chat Doctor.
