Im posting a 70year old woman labs what to do?

[HealthisWealth]

The doctor wants blood transfusion but the patient refuse and doctor prescribe an injection that has somethig to do to raise iron (epoetin).

Another issue is taking clonazepam for years and few weeks ago ecitalopram. But sleep is still a problem. I gave her aspirin 325mg for 5days and her sleep improves but the doctor want it stop because of anemia.

What first to correct whether by food, supplements, meds? She is in her home and can function. Symptoms are having a hard time to sleep and before taking aspirin and milk she is having on & off low grade fever.

The milk will continue but she stop the aspirin. The doctor prescribe her ferrous sulfate??? Before the labwork she was taking lots of supplement including ferrous gluconate.

I'm leery of iron supplements, as there is already a lot of iron added to common food products. What does her diet look like?

 

[HealthisWealth]

bad diet, i told telling her to stop eating bread because its enriched wheat flour and i think its 1week no more bread. I will ask her to eat greens leafy magnesium broth.

She is now somewhat open to stop ferrous sulfate. Will find a holistic doctor. Im happy she really dont like blood transfusion.
