    About Me

    I am newly diagnosed with hemochromatosis, and don't personally know anyone else with this condition. I would welcome dialog with someone else who has a confirmed DNA diagnosis.

    • Close Hemochromatosis

      I have a confirmed diagnosis of hemochromatosis. I no longer work (wish I could). I have very limited energy and stamina, and am just so very sick and tired of being sick and tired. Friends and family don't seem to understand how I can look okay, but never have energy for anything. I see my personal life disappearing now, as well. Phlebotomies have brought the iron down, but energy is less than ever, and am considering going to Mayo for help. I personally know no one with this disorder.

      Treatments

      Phlebotomy Working / Worked
      Iron down. Energy still less than it should be.
