I have recently had CBC and iron studies along with a lot of rheumatology tests. My H and H and iron came back extremely high. I have put in a call to my primary, but am concerned that this may represent polycythemia vera. I have reviewed signs and symps, and the only one that I do not have is weight los. I have left upper quadrant fullness/pain, constant headache, painful joints, including toes, elbows, knees, back pain, muscle trigger points (multiple), very strange vision changes, and extreme fatigue/malaise.
you may consult a clinical hematologist soon. High iron content can because of joint and other problems. Iron can be lowered by ch elation medicines(binding to substances).uncontrolled raised iron may bring complications to other organs in body also like liver, spleen bowels, so get treated by specialist soon. It can be easily controlled. Best wishes
