My blood test reveals that I have a high Erythropoietin more than two times the normal level

The grace had now fallen from itself because I once regard it as a miracle but now it is an actual medical disgrace. I am talking about my rather new medical condition which elevates the hemoglobin levels in my blood. Although the levels are within the normal range for hemoglobin and red blood cells in my body, it is high enough to cause concern because I am a dialysis patient and those levels are enough to give me a risk of stroke or heart attack in the future.

That is why I had consulted a Hematologist so I can maybe fix this issue to avoid further complications. Right now what I feel is that I have tinnitus and actually not much else except the fact that my vision is poor which I do think is related to my blood being thick. My Hematologist had prescribed Clopidrogel tablet for me to take everyday, it is a blood thinner so that I can avoid getting blood clots which can cause the aforementioned complications.

I still have not much idea on how my doctor would treat this new found blood condition but she may likely prescribe that "Chemo" drug which I was talking about from my previous posts and that is what worries me because again, I drug which is likened to a chemotherapy is like a death sentence for me because of its side-effects for me, namely nausea and vomiting.

My EPO level result compared to normal levels.

Considering that I still feel nauseous all the time which affects my eating habit, any additional cause of nausea and vomiting will be too hard to bear and endure anymore. So I will try to talk to my Hematologist for other options like bleeding me out since the problem is the opposite of anemia where anemic people needs blood transfusion but in my case with too much blood circulating will be needing blood to be taken-out from my circulation.

Well this is a mess, I have to tell my doctor to particularly identify the root cause because it will be the only way to effectively solve my blood disgracia without me suffering in the process of treating it in the way I am worried about which can very well end me earlier than my appointed time of graduation with no diploma.

I know that I am only living in w borrowed time and due to the patience and mercy of God and that I do not really enjoy this life of mine but I do not want to suffer extra hard than what I am going through. So it will be another thorn in my neck which I will have to painfully pry out again if I will be subjected in a hideous drug treatment which can give me another illness in the process.

I needed a positive outlook on this, maybe it will not that be bad after all and that I can leap tis kind of peculiar life hurdle anyway. I am strong inside but my body is weak and all that I can do is pray because God really holds our time in this world but we can ask him to give us more time and quality time, he knows what our heart's contents anyway so we have to fully trust God for anything. To God be the glory, Amen.
