New symptom

[Barbara N]

I just got the anemia diagnosis and was eating fresh pineapple last night when my tongue swelled up and was solid blood, just pouring blood. My tongue was just dark red and the whole thing was bleeding. It is a little sensitive today but if I eat anything solid it bleeds again. Any ideas? I am on iron and a liquid food supplemnt that helps since I can't seem to eat at the moment. worst part is that I am too weak to work with my horse which I know would make me stronger. About the anemia they wanted to have me take the injections too, they said my body had iron it just couldn't absorb it. I didn't take the injections and I haven't been anemic for a long time, well at least not very anemic.

I have never heard of that happening to anyone before. Does your doc know about this?

[Debbie C]

me either..that's pretty scary...you really need to go to the hospital

I am sorry you are going through this. That must be scary! What does your dr. say about it?

Please take care of yourself and keep us informed.

Hope
