interesting discussion. my last lab test (3 weeks ago) showed hemglobin had dropped back to 11.0 from 13.1 in just 3 months. But dr also said my white blood count was bordline low as well. I have just finished my 2nd of 3 dosing up of remicade. He said is it posible remicade could cause this. I have been on remicade before i had surgery in Jan of 2010. I go back next week for lab tests again. the thing is i get dizzy when moving too quickly, or standing up too fast. Aslo, have tried basketball again and have had several bouts of things "getting dim" and hands and feet tingling....i did stop playing. have not tried in over a week. i am wondering if the anemia is still there. They did stop me taking diuretics (for high blood pressure) as they thought might be contributing to the dizziness.
we shall see next week. but i have put on 5 lbs in the last 3 weeks. which is good 'casuse i was back to my low weight that i was after surgery.
