have had no comment. I test extremely high for iron. Tomorrow I have an

apt with the hepatologist and will bring up the issure of polycythemia and

of also celiac sprue. Thank you for all your research.

Hi Jan - Does your husband have a shrivelled non functional spleen which in turn has caused high red count? It seems a lot of people suffer from enlarged spleen but mine has shrivelled due to the drug I'm on. I've never heard of a disappearing spleen before!

Jan - will remember your husband in my prayers, it looks like I'll be going down the same track, my doctor has suggested tests, but I cant face it for now as Ive only just recovered from 2 ops the last six months. I've told doctor I'll get back to him in March!

Let me know how your husband gets on.

God bless
