This is new to me....post chemo, post radiation and yet I'm actually MORE tired now (daily 1-2 hour naps are pretty much a daily occurrence despite a solid 8+ hours of sleep each night). Hemoglobin is 10 - it was 8.2 so going in the right direction. But Iron is 22 and iron saturation is 10%. Oncologist wasn't going to draw labs for my post treatment follow up but I wanted to know the hemoglobin #. I met w/ PCP yesterday and convinced her to order a whole slew of labs to check thyroid, ferritin, etc. She was surprised that oncology didn't refer me to a hematologist. SOOO many specialists these days! Should I seek out a hematologist?
Thoughts from anyone w/ experience w/ this? The results came through MyChart of course after hours and it's a holiday weekend so I'll follow up on Tuesday if I don't hear from the Dr beforehand.
