Aplastic Anemia Archives

Help

My Father has been diagnosed with a blood disorder. The doctor says he knows what is happening butdoes not know why. He is going to be seeing a specialist at Hershey Medical Center.

The information I do have is that he is overproducing new red blood cells and it is destroying his white cells and his platelets. The Doctor says that normal new red blood cell count is 80,000 and his is 400,000. Do you have any insight?

Thank you
Jeff

Hi, Jeff.

Teh most common cause is hypersensitivity to environmental chemicals and he needs to see a good clinical ecologist before it pregresses further. See the archives about aplastic anemia since this is an early stage of THAT.

Get copies of ALL of his records to have in your hand when he sees the CE.

Let us know what you learn and how he does.
