[|Human|] My son has PMF.He is 34 yrs old. It was detected during a routine blood test for severe cough. His HB was 7.4 and platelet 83000. His spleen was 20.3 cms This was before two months. Now he has no cough,the spleen has shrunk, no symptoms of IBS, eats well and sleep is ok. But he is perpetually tired. He keeps lying dowN and does not move around. my question is how to reduce his problem of FATIGUE
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Your son was having severe anemia (hemoglobin 7.4). His platelets are also reduced. So possibility of megaloblastic anemia is more. Megaloblastic anemia if not treated can cause lethargy, fatigue, Tiredness etc. So start iron and vitamin B12 supplements. Once his hemoglobin level is increased, he will be alright with lethargy and fatigue. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your son. Thanks.
