Guest guest Posted August 4, 2002 Report Share Posted August 4, 2002 I just had all my labs done and am waiting for the vitamin levels to come back, B12, folate, etc., however, iron was severely low. Doc is thinking GI bleed too as I was diagnosed with ulcers, and severe gastritis in June due to Ibuprofen use (mother in-law put generic ibuprofen in my Tylenol bottle. Knew she didn't like me, but wasn't aware she was capable of homicide. LOL). Anyway, will have a definite diagnosis regarding the anemia sometime this week. In the meantime, doc told me to start iron supps (supplied by ) to try and get my levels up. If other work comes back normal will have to have another upper GI and possibly colonoscopy. Though stomach is feeling better, it's still not back to BMP (before Motrin poisoning). Hope you're feeling better.
