My hemoglobin has dropped to 7.8 and the doctors have not found out where the blood is coming from or where it s going. They do know that my stool sample is negative for blood. What could be causing this? I am on iron pills and had a iron infusion when in the hospital recently with a kidney infection.
Hi their understand your concern. I would like to tell you that when kidney is diseased then it doesn't produce Erythropoietin and as a result bone marrow doesn't produce enough red blood cells and result into anemia. Kindly get your proper kidney work-up done and consult with a Nephrologist. Consultation with a hematologist is also Recommended for further management. Hope this has answered your query. Kind Regards
