I Am Having High Sed Rate, Anemia, And High Triglycerides, High Pulse Rate
Hi...My daugter has anemia , high triglycerides, high sed rate, b-12 in the low-normal range. Also her resting pulse rate is between 119 to 124. Blood pressure has been high a couple of times, but always settles down to normal on the second reading. Her symptoms are: lack of energy, always tired, very off balanced, and random dizziness , but not all the time headaches sometimes, nausea in the morning. Also has been having hard time swallowing. Please help!!! We have been seeing a gastro spec, that is sending us to a neurologist tomorrow. I want her to see a cardiac specialist as well. Please please help!

Anemia is the cause of high sedimentation rate. B-12 deficiency could be the root cause of it. But the other symptoms are non specific, could be due to an infection. Resting pulse rate is really high and should be confirmed about the one making it so high. I recommend you to see a General Physician for further evaluation.

This is due to the vitamin b12 being low. I would recommend a follow up appointment with your Dr to arrange treatment.
