Last year when giving blood they told me I had great results.....now, the last four time I could not give blood...numbers went from 125 to 122 to 120 last time was 117???

Hello, Thanks for your query. After going through your query I think you are having muscle generalized pain all over the body. In my opinion these pains are likely to be due to vitamins and trace element deficiency specially that of vitamin D. Second important cause of this can be hypothyroidism. I also consider diabetes and anemia in differential diagnosis. I will suggest you to got following test to see cause (if these are not done earlier).1.Serum Vitamin D2.Serum Vitamin B12 3.T3,T4,TSH(Thyroid profile) 4.Blood sugar fasting and PP 5.Hb Furthermore Empirically treat my such patients by:-1.EVION LC 2.VITAMINE D3(if it is low) 3.VITAMIN B COMPLEX AND VITAMIN C 4.CALCIUM 5.Mecobalmine 6.ANALGESICS such as diclofenac for pain relief. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it. I do hope that you have found something helpful. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
