if you have low levels of hemoglobin, you can expect to live for 12 hours longer.
Does hepatitis c cause lowered hemoglobin levels?
The Answer is no But if on treatment as I am at the moment then yes the treatment can lower hemoglobin levels and I would like to add that this and all other symptoms are closely monitored by the medical team
If you have a high hemocrit would your hemoglobin be high or low?
If you have a high hematocrit, your hemoglobin levels would likely be high as well. Hematocrit measures the volume of red blood cells in blood, while hemoglobin is the protein that carries oxygen in red blood cells. An increase in hematocrit often corresponds with an increase in hemoglobin levels.
Why is hemoglobin decreased in pneumonia?
in patients with pneumonia, breathing is altered so there will be insufficiency in oxygen supply that would result to decreased hemoglobin. oxygen readily binds to hemoglobin in the lungs and is carried as oxyhemoglobin in arterial blood.
Does emphysema cause the body to ache?
The body would not have widespread aches and pains. Emphysema primarily affects the lungs, and secondarily the heart and brain. However, that does not mean a patients cannot have a pain condition along with their emphysema diagnosis.
Can low hemoglobin cause muscle pain?
Yes, low hemoglobin can cause muscle pain. Hemoglobin is a protein and is attached to red blood cells. Its job is to carry oxygen to the body's tissues. Without oxygen the tissues (including muscle) experience ischemia which is painful. Ischemia is what causes the pain a person has when they have a heart attack, for instance. So if a person's red blood cells are not carrying oxygen (because their hemoglobin levels are low enough), they would have muscle pain.
Which of the following laboratory tests would be abnormal for a patient with anemia?
Hemoglobin levels would be low in a patient with anemia. Additionally, hematocrit levels and red blood cell count would also be decreased in an individual with anemia. Iron studies, such as serum iron and ferritin levels, may also show abnormalities in cases of iron-deficiency anemia.
Why would a person suffering from an iron deficiency would feel tried at all times?
hemoglobin in red blood cells is what delivers oxygen to the muscles. "heme" means iron. iron deficiency would lower hemoglobin levels making you fatigued.
How does emphysema affect arterial blood gases?
O2 sat on room air or arterial blood would be lower than normal. CO2 levels would be higher.
Can microwave cooker radiation cause congenital emphysema?
No. The word "congenital" means "from birth," so that type of emphysema would result from an inherited trait or tendency, not from any environmental source like microwave radiation.
How would the body be affected if red blood cell had low levels of hemoglobin?
It wouldn`t have enough protein so it would die or shut down Your welcome:)
Is it normal to have mood swings when you suffer from emphysema?
Only my personal opinion, but I would think that any irreversible physical condition as potentially severe as emphysema would cause extended dips in self-esteem, cheerfulness, well-being, self-confidence, euphoria, et al.
