Question Category : Anemia
I just took my grand-daughter to a lab yesterday to be tested for lead, it was part of her 18 month check up. The doctor called our house the following day and asked to have the baby brought back to the lab. Her hemoglobin levels were low? I'm not sure if that is spelled right. I am wondering what the concern is and if it is related to lead based paint in the blood? Check Out the Answer

THANK YOUR FOR RESPONDING TO MY EMAIL. I'M GLAD TO SAY HER PLATELET COUNT HAS GONE UP TREMENDOUSLY. HER HGC AND RBC HAVE GONE DOWN ALONG WITH HER WBC. I HAVEN'T BEEN GIVEN A DEFINITE DIAGNOSIS BUT APLASTIC ANEMIA IS A POSSIBLITY. IS A BONE MARROW TRANSPLANT ALWAYS NECESSARY FOR THIS CONDITION? ARE THERE MEDICATIONS THAT CAN BE USED BEFORE A TRANSPLANT? Check Out the Answer
