For the last couple of months, I have been battling re-emerging bouts of anemia, that my doctor says is because of my condition, but I think it is because of the predisnone I have been taking. I know it is common for people with lupus, but this inflammation is driving me crazy. I don't believ it is the diet either since I am very specific about it. Anyone have any recommendations or advice to deal with this? Thanks

Hi @lupus38

How are you today?

I'm sorry to hear about your anemia. If it is a common symptom of Lupus, perhaps others have dealt with this situation before and can offer you advice. I'll tag a few other members who may be able to tell you what they have done.

@Pixiestyx @Shanar @Stepb1 @claudke @Destiny415 @Debgaudy @CIDP_Beth @BettyBorsukoff @Rachelsara @Kprice8529 @DeniseLynn @Jackwold @Fresh.out.of.Spoons @Dodiel @Maryann7 @Maria1958 @Nclady1966 @lmustang89 @Danilola @Jamiemomma @MSlupuswarrior @diana1ms @GigiSmilez @AnneStan @TracyyS @Henrycarlos @VeeElCee

Do you have anemia? Has your doctor prescribed anything for it? What other advice can you offer @lupus38

Take care,

Lizzi

So sorry you’re having to deal with this. I had a single bout of hemolytic anemia, most likely due to the IVIG treatments I get for CIDP. Not fun! I had iron infusions for a while and that resolved it. Have you seen a hematologist?
