Hi,I am Dr. Robert Galamaga (Hematologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My niece has been hospitalized since yesterday because she was throwing up blood and she got 2 blood transfussions yesterday and one today. The doctor said she has no iron at all and she has been having trouble breathing so she is now getting oxygen. What can these symptoms mean? The doctors say they still don't know what it is but they are running blood tests.
Hi, dear I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. She have hematemesis and severe bleeding leads to anemia, iron deficiency and difficulties in breathing. She should be given blood transfusion till exact diagnosis. She may have some liver pathology or portal hypertension. She need endoscopy examination and routine blood test. Then take treatment accordingly.
