How Else Can Anemia Be Treated Apart From A Blood Transfusion?
I started with a surface vein blood clot in my leg. that has since cleared up. the pain is finally gone. During this process My blood was tested and am found out to have Anemia. This far I have had a colonoscopy/Endoscopy/CT scan each one of these tests has come back clear. I should tell you I use natural medications such as plant green iron and such to get my numbers back up. 6.1 is my hemo. count and they tell me that is low. Now they want to do a blood transfusion and I am really not on board with this. What our some other options?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. I think you need transfusion because your hemoglobin is very low and after that you can continue to take iron. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
