Hi Richard, Very good hemoglobin count! This tells me something. Your TKI is going it's job and your kidneys are working well. It is your kidneys that produce a hormone (can't remember the name of this hormone at the moment) that goes to your bone marrow to help promote hemoglobin and red blood cell production.
I have been anemic for many years ever since my kidneys failed and had to get either Procrit or Epogen injections about once a month as my hemoglobin directed. My HGB was always in the range of in the upper 8's to just breaking 10 for many years. Always tired and a lack of energy until I would get the injection of Epogen during my dialysis treatments However the dialysis treatments would usually knock the crap out of me so with or with out Procrit I usually still felf very worn down, tired and a lack of energy Now that I had a kidney transplant along with a TURP procedure I can once again be able to urinate like a fire hose putting out a fire in a ten story building. Also my hemoglobin (HGB) has slowly been creeping up from an 8 to a 12 as of yesterdays blood work, so my new kidney is working well with my Creatinine level being at 1. Normal Creatnine is usually any ware from .3 to 1.4 depending on the lab that did the test. Amazing, putting a 20 year old man's kidney into a now 71 year old man. I was 70 at the time of my kidney transplant just three and a half months ago. I guess good things come in small packages [?] 18's, Marty On Mon, Jun 8, 2015 at 11:59 PM, Richard H <[email protected]> wrote: > Hemoglobin is climbing without the shot now at 12.4. YEAH!!!
