Diagnosed with severe anemia. Treatment period? Recovery period?
Patient: Hi! I was just diagnosed this week with a severe anemia . Its weekend and I will be able to see my Internal Medicine doctor after my endoscopy and colonoscopy procedures which will be done next week, but I m so anxious to know How long will be the entire treatment for severe anemia and how long will be the recovery process? . Your immediate reply is greatly appreciated.    PLEASE REMOVE MY POSTING NAME.  THANK YOU, Doctor: Severe anemia,if Hb is less than 5%,you need immediate blood transfusion ,even before the procedures under emergency ICCU.The procedures are to evaluate and find out the cause.If the cause is found,the relevant appropriate management may be done to cure you from the disease.
