My Wife With Sickle Cell Anaemia Is Pregnant. by Olmat(m): 10:14am On Sep 09, 2020 |
Please I need advice from doctors in the house. My wife pcv is low, and this drug was prescribed at the general hospital. I went through the leaflet and discovered it contains iron and they advised people with haemolytic Anaemia to stay away from it. Please is it safe for her to take the drugs and if not, what things or drugs can she take to improve her PCV. She's almost 6months pregnant.

Don't self medicate. Let her register for antenatal at a good Teaching hospital. Experienced hands will see her through |

You should have disclosed to the medics your wife is a sickle cell. That would have aided them know suitable prescription. 1 Like |

Olmat:Please, let her go and register at a teaching hospital immediately. ![]() |

Protein0:That not possible, we live a bit far from any teaching hospital in lagos, I need to distance into consideration when she falls into labour. We registered at a General Hospital. |

When did NAIRALAND become a Mobile Hospital to handle such an OBSTETRIC high-risk pregnancy..? IF you truly care and Love your Wife, you should be seeing to be registering her in a Facility equipped with medical wisdom and expertise to handle such and not rushing to NAIRALAND to create Topics with the expectation that current best standards of practice will be explained to you here. With the way it's going, Very soon NAIRALAND may start taking deliveries too. |

Olmat:Then find a nearby private hospital with an Obs&Gyn consultant. For expectant mothers in her category, the quality of ante natal care they receive forms the bulk of their delivery. |

EVILFOREST:It's sad really. Tackling low PCV in a sickle cell mom when she's almost in her last trimester. |
Re: My Wife With Sickle Cell Anaemia Is Pregnant. by byinks(f): 11:40am On Sep 09, 2020 |
Olmat: General hospitals have too many outpatients and doctors don't have time for thorough review of cases... please enroll her in a teaching hospital antenatal clinic. Your wife and child's life is very precious I wouldn't say more than that. |
Re: My Wife With Sickle Cell Anaemia Is Pregnant. by Ayofaks(f): 12:55pm On Sep 09, 2020 |
Olmat: Do they know she has sickle cell anaemia? If they don't, please let them know her medical history, this will determine the kind of drugs and treatments she can receive. |

While you are still waiting for answers concerning this drug, let her try ugu and garden egg leaves. Very potent in increasing pcv |
