Guest guest Posted May 21, 2007 Report Share Posted May 21, 2007 Dear Marilette, Namaste. My friend is 45 yrs old. He has been diagnosed with autoimmune hemolytic anemia with an underlying medically undiagnosed blood disease. He's been sick for 8 yrs. About 4 yrs ago doctors removed his spleen because it was enlarged. His treatment has been daily intake of steroids and chemo therapy about every two weeks depending on his blood tests. In the last six weeks, his steroids have been reduced until now he doesn't take them. They were making him feel even weaker. He takes naps or just goes to bed during the day when he gets too tired. At night, his body is tired as always, but he says his mind won't shut down. Recently, after the steroids were stopped is when his legs started feeling heavy. Any advice you can give me will be greatly appreciated. Very respectfully, Betty ============================= Dear Betty, Atma namaste. Thank you for the additional information. Medical Background: Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (Hemolytic Anemia) by Ricker Polsdorfer, MD Autoimmune hemolytic anemia is a condition in which your body’s immune system mistakenly attacks its own red blood cells, causing them to disintegrate (hemolyse). This can be a serious, even lethal, condition that requires medical care. There are many causes of hemolysis, the breaking up of red blood cells. Some are congenital (eg, sickle cell disease), some are due to other diseases, and some are caused by drugs, but they all lead to anemia. The autoimmune hemolytic anemias, of which there are many types, occur when antibodies attack red blood cells. Causes In some cases of autoimmune hemolysis, medications may attach to red cells, leading to targeting for destruction by the immune system. The most common are penicillin and its relatives, cephalosporins, quinidine, and some anti-inflammatory drugs. In most cases, however, abnormal immune function leads the body to attack normal red blood cells. Causes of the underlying abnormal immune function include: Drugs Alpha-methyldopa L-dopa Infections Viral infections (including mononucleosis) Mycoplasma pneumonia Cancers Leukemia Lymphoma (Non-Hodgkin’s but also occasionally Hodgkin’s) Collagen-vascular (autoimmune) diseases (eg, lupus) Risk Factors A risk factor is something that increases your chance of getting a disease or condition. The following factors increase your chance of developing autoimmune hemolytic anemia: Recent viral infections Current medications of the types that can cause autoimmune hemolytic anemia Cancer or leukemia Collagen-vascular (autoimmune) disease Family history of hemolytic disease Symptoms If you experience any of these symptoms, do not assume the cause is due to autoimmune hemolytic anemia. These symptoms may be caused by many other health conditions. If you experience any one of them, see your physician. Dark brown urine Jaundice (yellow skin) Pallor (pale skin) Muscle pains Headache Nausea and vomiting Diarrhea Progressive weakness Shortness of breath Rapid heartbeat When autoimmune hemolytic anemia is caused by cancer, medications, or collagen-vascular disease, treating the underlying condition may suffice. Corticosteroids Cortisone-like drugs suppress the immune response and usually markedly improve autoimmune hemolytic anemia. Other Immunusuppressive Drugs If corticosteroids are not effective, other drugs that suppress the immune system may be used. These include azathioprine and cyclophosphamide. Splenectomy The spleen removes abnormal red cells from the circulation, including those labeled with antibodies. Removing the spleen can preserve those cells and prevent anemia. Transfusion If your blood gets too anemic, you will need transfusions. Prevention - Because of the multiple possible causes of autoimmune hemolytic anemia, prevention is not a consideration. ..
