Alison Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 Im assuming I probably have low blood volume. I'm wondering what the implications of ths are for a whole load of issues:Bones - does this mean that my blood may not be feeding my bones enough calcium and other nutrients? I'm hoping to have a bone scan - not sure if my GP will agree it s necessaryThyroxine - I read quite a lot about low thyroid before I was diagnosed as my symptoms seemed similar, my blood levels relating to ths were okay, maybe a bit low, my doctor said they were fine. I read that some people who have slightly low levels really improve if they take thyroxine - maybe a Pots person would? If we haven't got enough blood, maybe the usual blood tests aren't really meaningful?Iron, vitamin D etc - maybe there are a whole load of things that we'd benefit from taking a lot of? General nutrition - does the low blood volume mean that our bodies are a bit starved generally?Being new to the form I don't know if this as been discussed before - I have had a browse in previous topics.

Alison Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Has anyone else had a bone scan, and if so, how were your bones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
