Hopefully, Donuel is in the wrong thread...


Sounds like he was trying to rule out something that was no longer a problem. If you know what causes the anemia, can you chart it, kat,and prove your point.

I used to have to fight with my doctor about blood transfusions. For a week after the onset of my period (which lasted 21 days) I was severely anemic. Big surprise. AIDS was being found in the blood supply and I was too anemic to put aside blodd for myself. But I knew what the cause was.

They don't listen. And they do want to avoid lawsuits.

Sounds like you are dreading the meeting with your cardiologist. Maybe, writing down everything you want to say and answers to everything you expect him to ask/say will help relieve some of the stress. Can Roger sit in on the meeting? An ally?
