Hemoglobin dropping consyantly

Categories:

Hi there,

My hemoglobin has been constantly dropping since a month.

July 10 :14.3
July 28 : 14.2
Aug 3. : 13.7
Aug17. : 13.4

I am on Tasigna since 7 months and am in MMR.

I am drinking beetroot juice and spinach.

Kindly suggest. Can I go for iron supplements?

My HGB has dropped to 111 g/L. My haematologist is virtually certain it is not iron deficiency. Described as "very mild normocytic normochromic anaemia".

Are you sure that your anaemia is iron deficiency?

 

No, I am not sure.

Also I am not aware of "very mild normocytic normochromic anaemia"

Anything to be worried about?

Hi

Hemoglobin Standard Range 11.7 - 16.1 g/dL

Here at the centre of England the range for men is 13.3 to 16.6 g/dL.

I understand that the range for women the top and bottom figures are lower.
