Frustrated
Went to urgent care yesterday due to heart palpitations, dizziness and general weakness. I’m sure these are very common complaints and can be due to many things, but felt very dismissed by the physician. My blood ox and other vitals were all good.
My last labs show iron at 9, iron saturation at 2, hemoglobin 8.9, ferritin at 5.
Physician said my anemia wasn’t that bad and likely not causing my issues.
I’ve had two Venofer infusions and repeat labs aren’t sure until July.
Still feel poorly. I assume getting labs sooner wouldn’t really help. Just frustrated and want to feel better.
