Question:
Does anyone know?

Does anyone know how to build up your hemoglobin fast either naturally or with certain vitamins. My hemoglobin is going down and I'm afraid they cancel my surgery if it gets to low. Do they even check your hemoglobin before surgery? I'm worried I do not want them to cancel my surgery. My surgery is not until December so I need to build it up. Any suggestions would be appreciated.    — cuppaloopy (posted on October 17, 2009)

the best thing to do is call your doc. You have plenty of time to get your hemoglobin up but get working on it now. My iron was low a couple of months before surgery and it was fine by the time i had my surgery. good luck!!

I understand how you are anxious for your surgery but you don't want to jeopardize your health by not being up front with your surgeon. Give her/him a call.
