- A few days ago someone recommended two grieving books that I intend to get. One was Grieving Mindfully by Sameet M. which I ordered. I forgot the name of the other one that the same person suggested. I would very much appreciate if someone could...
- I attended a Hospice promoted Grief Group last week, my husband died two months ago, and I found it extremely painful to sit in a room listening to twelve freshly wounded folks express their pain. I could not do it and will not return. What can...
- My husband died 2 months ago, I thought I was handling things ok but for the past week all I do is fight the tears or cry. Like the others say, for a multitude of reasons. Will it ever cease? Are we talking about months, years, what? I know...
- I've been getting several phlebs month and have recently noticed that my skin suddenly looks "old" - fine lines and a bit haggard. I wonder if it could be partly due to the removal of fluid from my body on a regular basis. Of course, I drink...
- My husband died one month ago. We had a fun and exciting marriage for 36 years until two years ago when he became ill; his personality changed, he became difficult and unpleasant. He died unexpectedly, we did not get to say good bye and though I...
- Hey, how long did it take for you to be de-ironed? May I ask what your starting ferritin was? I've gone from 741 to 336 in 5 months - does that compare to you?
- Would the phlebs possibly make me depressed? I've read about foggy brains and fatigue on this site. I have that but now find myself quite depressed. I don't think I am overly worried about HH itself, it is more like a no reason...
- I wrote earlier about extreme fatigue after a phlep. I am just starting to feel better after 20 days. I have had weird fluttering in the heart area, short of breath and can't do much of anything. I saw my Hem Friday and he said well it is tougher...
- I have been getting phlebs for a few months and am really having a difficult time. My ferretin is still 500 (I am getting it tested again today) and want to add serious diet changes to help. I bought he cookbook and many other books. All are...
- I have been getting phlebs for a few months; after each phelb I feel more and more fatigued: doing anything exhausts me. The hem wanted every week, we compromised to every two weeks and I am dragging most of the time. Any tips? I will see the hem...
- Anyone losing body and head hair? i noticed quite a drop in my late forties and read recently that it could be due to HH. Anything to help it regrow? I get phebs every two weeks and wonder if that will help...I was diagnosed a few months ago.
- After a few phlebotomies, the burning sensation at the bottom of my feet went away; could it be a result of less iron or just a coincidence?Also, do you think that excessive sweating and urticuria can be related to hemochromatosis?Langlois
- Do those symptoms come along with HH? I have no problems with that but my grandson has real problems with it. He has not been tested yet to see if he has HH, he will soon go to Mayo for a workup; should he mention that, do you think?Thanks,...
- Newly diagnosed with HH; after a few phleps, is noticed something missing: no burning feet! I'd been having problems with it for a couple of years and wonder: could the excess iron have been the cause?Let me know, Langlois
- Can HH cause or aggravate constipation or digestion? I am having some trouble with both and just wondered...
