Living Life Till the Blood is Used Up

By vincent-wright

I've been praying and begging doctors and hospitals for help and diagnosis for working on 5 years now. It all started with a ripped loose collarbone at the sternum and has spread throughout my entire body. I've asked about cancer all along and they've all steered clear of the subject.

I've even been getting low on blood volume the last 4 months where the hospitals and doctors say that "Your blood readings are just fine" with my entire body all dehydrated lacking of blood and collapsed.

I feel I'm reaching the end of life from not enough blood to survive because of this dishonest medical society! I wish I could show you all a picture of all my dead dry flakey skin peeling off caused by this lack of blood volume circulation. 😣

Hi Vincent, sorry this has been a rough bout in finding the who, what and how. The process of diagnoses can at times be unsettling, confusing, and questionable. Take a read of the following link on suggestions. Wish you well! <a href='https://blood-cancer.com/clinical/healthcare-team/' target='_blank'>https://blood-cancer.com/clinical/healthcare-team/</a>

When I collapsed once, an ambulance took me to the emergency room and they gave me fluids. Even if your blood counts are normal, your electrolytes are probably off from being dehydrated. We're not doctors but it seems like you should at least go to one of those walk-in medical clinics. In the meantime, you could drink Pedialyte, which we used to give to our kids. I've been told it's the best for re-hydration. When I had it, it was pretty gross, but now they seem to have better options. <a href='https://pedialyte.com/' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer ugc'>https://pedialyte.com/</a>

Oh no- I hope that you don't give up on advocating and seeking answers. I am so sorry you have to go through this. Like Yolanda said, you should absolutely use B-C's resources in finding a healthcare team that meets your needs.

I'm so sorry, this sounds incredibly frustrating. I had a misdiagnosis that went on for months and with that said, my best piece of advice to you is to get a second or even third opinion. It's unfortunate that we sometimes need to advocate so hard to get answers for ourselves and I hope you find some clarity soon. Best of luck and please keep us updated!
