Jeez, that sucks. I've never heard of so many people with blood disorders as I have in the past several years. No idea what's up with that. I bet you the incidence has increased lately.
 Quoting: Isis One


I wouldn't doubt it. Seems many health issues are on the rise lately. :\

My specific blood issues are my hemoglobin and hematocrit are too high.

They leveled off to normal last year when I was being drained every so often, but I haven't been drained since last August and now my numbers are way up there again. High enough that I have to see a hematologist again. Blah.
 Quoting: Simple27


That really stinks. Are you able to donate blood? If so and the doctors won't drain, maybe giving blood would do similar and give relief?

In any case, I'll be praying for you.
 Quoting: a Dude, not THE Dude


I wish, because it would help, but with my current levels they won't take it. It can't be used for anyone else. :\

I'll take the prayers though! hugs

You puzzle them because you got tiger blood. I do hope though they are finally able to pin point this once and for all. I can imagine it drains you emotionally and physical.

But you know, as tiring, and annoying it is and as much as it hurts, you never ever give up.

You didn't give up the past years and you won't this time either and you will come out the winner again.

Invest 92L will likely become Tropical Storm #Irma either today or Monday off the Southeast coast. It will likely make a direct hit on NC.

Even if they don't take your blood, they might be able to take your plasma. Some might take the blood to separate out the plasma afterward, thus giving you relief.

Most just take the plasma and leave the red blood cells etc in you though.

Royal Dutch Shell said on Sunday that it was shutting down its Deer Park Refinery, with a capacity of 340,000 barrels per day.
CNBC can also confirm that Exxon Mobil's Baytown, Texas, plant (560,000 b/d) is shut down.
Overall, expect more than 1 million barrels per day offline just from the Houston/Galveston area.
The BSEE says that almost 22 percent of current oil production from the Gulf of Mexico has been shut-in.

The total rainfall from the storm is likely to tally up to a widespread 15 to 30 inches, with a few localized spots picking up 50 inches or more. Many textbooks have the 60-inch mark as a once-in-a-million-year recurrence interval, meaning that if any spots had that amount of rainfall, they would essentially be dealing with a once-in-a-million-year event.

I believed in the potential for this, Luis. And many others did. You're always going to find people on this site who argue whatever you (or anyone else) is trying to relay, so try not to let it get to you. Your knowledge and insight is much appreciated!!

I saw that in another thread. I understand that the authorities have been notified and clearing that home of residents became a high priority. Some amazing things can happen when social media broadcasts an imminent threat to health and life. They will be helped, that's our consolation, but there is the lingering aftertaste of neglect and mistreatment that can't be overlooked. Tragic.
