Hi, I've been back in the hospital, but home now. My anemia is steadily getting worse.
I know Tegretol can cause aplastic anemia. I just started Tegretol about a week ago.
Can anemia from Tegretol kick in that quickly? I did have a case of fairly severe rectal bleeding (fun, fun) last Friday, and had been thinking that was the casue, but as I said, hemoglobin keeps dropping.
It's a shame if it is b/c of the Tegretol b/c it has really, really helped me psychologically. I know Trileptal does not carry the same risk, but does it work as well psychologically?
Hope you all are well. Thanks,
KatIve got a really bad disease
Its got me begging on my hands and knees
So take me to emergency
Cause somethin seems to be missing
Somebody take the pain away
Its like an ulcer bleeding in my brain
