[|AI|]  Hi and thanks for the query, The hemoglobin count you present is actually low and needs urgent attention. Depending on the clinical presentation, if the patient supports this hemoglobin level, Iron medication could be used and monitored. The injection or addition of vitamin K might be useful if his slotting profile is non-satisfactory. Liver cirrhosis is diagnosed on bases of an ultrasound, a liver work up and at times a liver biopsy. It might be necessary to consult a gastroenterologist for proper diagnosis and management. Thanks and best regards, Luchuo, MD.
