Hi everyone,
I just have a couple questions about some issues I’m having at the moment… I have anemia and previously had some iron treatments once a week for 5 weeks…those ended about 6 or so weeks ago, my iron levels are still low but just by one number over the low cut off on my labs…I’ve now been getting dizzy spells and feel even more sluggish again, so I wondered if anyone gets random dizzy spells without it being due to anemia with your lupus or should I be maybe asking about getting more iron treatments again?
Hi Niki B, Dizzy spells are definitely one of my lupus symptoms, but I have cns lupus. It would be a good idea to let your doc know what is now happening and see what his thoughts are. I hope you feel better soon.
Hi Niki
I have trouble with anemia also. Speaking with your doctor would be a good ideal as you never know what could be causing them. I have my levels checked ever 6 months.
It could also be from hypothyroidism, dizzy and sluggish are symptoms of this disease too. I would check with your doctor.
I have both sypmtoms and both diseases. When I was 30 to 40 years younger I always had anemia and took iron.
Hope you find an answer and feel better soon!
Thank u all and keep the advice coming
