Hi Welcome to HCM
I have gone thru your query regarding your low blood count . I can understand your concern .
Dear , first thing, you have not mentioned your age , height , weight to know how obese you are and how much you have to reduce ? is good to know that you have cut back on fatty foods . hips are sagging and loosing some weight under chin breast and stomach . It is natural welcoming result of your gesture towards loosing wt. ,but low blood count ' and all other symptoms ,is matter of concern .
All your symptoms are signs of 'Anemia' .
Anemia is a medical condition in which the red blood cell count or hemoglobin is less than normal.Red blood cells are produced in the bone marrow which is the soft tissue in the center of most bones. Red blood cells carry oxygen to all parts of your body. When your red blood cell (or hemoglobin) count is low, parts of your body do not get enough oxygen to do their work. This condition is called anemia and can make you feel very tired.
As we all know that our over all health depends upon what we eat ,when we eat and how we eat '.
Gulping on medicines will not help cure if we don't modify our food habits nd life style
Dear in fact,Your body is always fighting something -- an infection, a toxin, an allergen, a food or the stress response -- and somehow it redirects its hostile attack on your joints, your brain, your thyroid, your gut, your skin, or sometimes your whole body. Your immune system is your defense against invaders .
Your immune system is your defense against invaders .
But when the immune system becomes weak, the disease cells can grow out of control , the disease overpowers
So you should not ignore other possibilities , that can be constipation , mental stress , worry , anger . All affect our health badly .
Our bewildered life style and faulty food habits of fast food & lack of exercise are culprits which drag us to sufferings of ill health .
Our health depends on 'what we eat ,when we eat , & how we eat 'on our life style .
Gulping on only medicine & antibiotic will not help cure unless you modify your life style and your food habits .
. Along with medical treatment you need to avoid carbs, fried ,fast foods , tea , coffee , alcohol and I will suggest to increase intake of protiens , vitamins , mineral in natural form-- fresh fruit , green veges and and supplements full of antioxidents -ginger ,garlic , lemon juice , honey ,fresh coconut water and fish for omega 3 is also great antioxidant , fenu greek powder with water .
Eat well balanced meals. Dietitians are available to assist you in planning.
Drink 2-3 litres (8-12 glasses) of liquid a day unless you have a heart or kidney problem.
If your doctor prescribes iron supplements, try prunes, prune juice or dried fruit to prevent possible constipation.
I will suggest to you should try to loose wt. only under expert guidance
It. To strengthen immune response naturally , exercise regularly -- it's a natural anti-inflammatory.For proper blood circulation , regular slow walk for 20-25 minute for 5 days a weak , exercise , yoga gently , pranayam-deep breathing , proper rest & sound sleep , massage help, helps in detoxifying and strengthening the immune system to enhance resistance from diseases and pave way for healthy disease free life .
Take Homeopathic Arsnic 30 /3 drops in a cup of water / make 3 doses of this mixture . Take all at a gap of 30 mins . Repeat for 3 days
If your hemoglobin level falls below 80 or 90 you may be given a red blood cell transfusion .consult you doctor for that
