    • Close Hemochromatosis

      I was feeling incredibly tired and weak all the time, to the point where even standing still was difficult. Blood tests were done and it was determined that I have hereditary hemochromotosis. Additionally, I have an inflamed liver and suffer from joint and bone pain quite frequently due to the disease. I just started undergoing phlebotomies.

      Treatments

      Phlebotomy Working / Worked
      I have so far undergone two phlebotomies. My fatigue and weakness has not been as severe.
      Phlebotomy Too Soon to Tell
      too soon to really tell, but do feel a little better . . .
    • Close Psoriasis
