Anemia is a condition in which the body does not have enough healthy red blood cells. Red blood cells provide oxygen to body tissues.
Other types of anemia include:
You may have no symptoms if the anemia is mild. If the problem develops slowly, symptoms that may occur first include:
If the anemia gets worse, symptoms may include:
Some types of anemia may have other symptoms.
The doctor will perform a physical examination, and may find:
Some types of anemia may cause other findings on a physical exam.
Blood tests used to diagnose some common types of anemia may include:
Other tests may be done to find medical problems that can cause anemia.
Although many parts of the body help make red blood cells, most of the work is done in the bone marrow. Bone marrow is the soft tissue in the center of bones that helps form blood cells.
Healthy red blood cells last between 90 and 120 days. Parts of your body then remove old blood cells. A hormone called erythropoietin made in your kidneys signals your bone marrow to make more red blood cells.
Hemoglobin is the oxygen-carrying protein inside red blood cells. It gives red blood cells their red color. People with anemia do not have enough hemoglobin.
The body needs certain vitamins, minerals, and nutrients to make enough red blood cells. Iron, vitamin B12, and folic acid are three of the most important ones. The body may not have enough of these nutrients because:
Blood transfusions
Corticosteroids or other medicines that suppress the Immune System
Erythropoietin, a medicine that helps your bone marrow make more blood cells
Severe anemia can cause low oxygen levels in vital organs such as the heart, and can lead to a heart attack.
As with ALL medications, there will be side-effects and other unforeseen consequences. Research these and discuss them with your doctor or pharmacist BEFORE heading down the road of no return. Consider Dr. Huntoon's Alternative Medical Treatment Options next.
Dr. Huntoon has quite the history helping people overcome their anemia health concern by supporting the body to address the CAUSE of the anemia and feeding the body the missing ingredients that lead to the imbalance to begin with. Having a consultation with Dr. Huntoon to see what is required for you specifically is warranted.
Working with a Holisitic Chiropractor who uses nutritional supplements of iron, vitamin B12, folic acid, or other vitamins and minerals will help to solve this issue. Having an evaluation to determine WHY you have anemia and figuring out how to truly address the underlying cause allows you, with the condition, to now have control over your anemia instead of your anemia controlling you.
Making sure to look at your blood results (CBC with a differential as well as a Complete Blood Chemistry) will help your practitioner to see what is in balance and what is out of balance and help you understand the Why. Have your Medical Doctor do both of these blood tests before consulting with your Holistic Chiropractor so that when your results improve, your Medical Doctor will know.
Bring Dr. Huntoon your Blood Results to discuss what your blood results mean.
Call your health care provider if you have any symptoms of anemia, or any unusual bleeding.
If you have blood results and you are not happy with the lack of understanding your medical doctor is giving you regarding your overall health, please come see Dr. Huntoon. He will help you understand what your bloodwork means and how he can help you change your health.
