[|Human|] Hi my recent blood test just showed I have high level of iron in red blood cells Which did not show up in one that I had back in November 2013. Also my cholesterole is high and has always been, but plates were normal as well as white blood cell count. I recently feel a lot of pain in my legs and tightness in knees, fingers of both hands feel tight and the past complained to doctors of blood vessels in fingers stretching until they popped and broke leaving my fingers black n blue for a day, which occurred only about six or seven times but no one had any answers for me and dismissed it. I am concerned my doctor put me on one baby aspirin per day About a week ago n wants to repeat blood test again in 1 to 2 months.
[|AI|]  Hello, I have studied your case. I think that pain and tightness is due to cholesterol lowering Chat Doctor.  Are you taking any statin which can cause such symptoms? Other common causes of muscle tightness is low salt and calcium in body, so you need to check for this.  High cholesterol or aspirin itself never causes such symptoms, so you do not have to be worried about this. If you take regular calcium and vitamin D then soon you will feel better about muscle tightness. I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions. Thanks
