Beta blockers do not directly interfere with the production of red blood cells. However, they can sometimes cause a slight decrease in hemoglobin levels, which may affect red blood cell count indirectly. It is important to discuss any concerns about changes in blood cell count with a healthcare provider.
Genes involved in the production of abnormal red blood cells may have mutations in their DNA sequence, leading to changes in the protein structure that result in abnormal red blood cells. These mutations can affect genes like HBB (hemoglobin beta), which is important for normal hemoglobin production, leading to conditions like sickle cell anemia.
Red blood cells can be small in size due to conditions such as iron deficiency anemia, thalassemia, or certain genetic disorders. These conditions can affect the production or structure of red blood cells, leading to smaller than normal sizes.
Melanin production: Different levels of melanin, a pigment produced by specialized cells in the skin, affect skin color. Blood circulation: Differences in blood flow to the skin can influence skin color, with increased blood flow leading to a redder appearance. Sun exposure: Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun can cause the skin to darken as a result of melanin production.
the kidneys regulate urine production by monitoring blood levels of water and electrolytes (amoung many other things) in the plasma
i never had high blood pressure until after i had injections in my feet
Even if it did, as long as you can prove it was administered by a doctor with a perscription, it's completely legal for you to have it.
Cortisone can indirectly influence red blood cell production by impacting the hormone erythropoietin, which regulates red blood cell production in the bone marrow. In some cases, cortisone therapy may lead to increased red blood cell count through this mechanism. It is important to monitor blood cell levels closely during cortisone treatment to ensure that these changes do not lead to any complications.
Yes. Hydro-cortisone is a steroid. Steroids raise blood sugars.
Yes, it is possible. The inflammation that you are having in the spinal region can cause white cell count elevation. Using the cortisone injections will decrease the inflammation and therefore the WBC count.
Cortisone would not typically affect the results of a pregnancy test. Pregnancy tests detect the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine or blood, which is a hormone produced by the placenta during pregnancy. Cortisone would not interfere with this hormone or affect its detection in a pregnancy test.
Yes, there can be negative reactions to both cortisone injections and herbal sleeping pills. Cortisone injections may cause side effects such as pain at the injection site, increased blood sugar levels, or potential joint damage with repeated use. Herbal sleeping pills can lead to side effects like drowsiness, dizziness, or allergic reactions, and may interact with other medications. It's essential to consult a healthcare provider before combining these treatments to avoid adverse effects.
Friends have developed diabetes from cortisone shots in the spine.

Without B12, red blood cell production is greatly reduced
Yes. Insulin production usually decreases with age, which causes blood sugar to rise. This can be counteracted with exercise and a low-GI diet.
