Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was put on IV iron for 5 weeks/once a week because at one time I had abnormal blood labs by a consulting hematologist my GP sent me to. But now, my team of 3 doctors do not agree on my course of treatment. The hematologist says I need it; my general and GI specialist say I don't because my labs do not support it. No blood in stool, no celiac disease, no anemia, hemoglobin 12.0., etc. How do I navigate conflicting recommendations among my professional medical team?
