Dr Stoll Home Dr Stoll BB Aplastic Anemia Posts to Ask Dr Stoll BB regarding Aplastic Anemia There have been many posts to the Ask Dr Stoll Bulletin Board (BB) regarding Aplastic Anemia and other blood disorders. Several of them have been archived here. The archive is roughly chronological. I hope you find it useful. Summary for aplastic anemia: This type of anemia is, perhaps, the most severe one can have since it is caused by a shutdown of the person's ability to MAKE blood cells. That means that, even if all the nutrients are present, the factory cannot make them into cells. The only known, conventional, solution is repeated blood transfusions and eventually even that will not help and the person dies. There are medications that will help for a while but it is really whipping a deadly tired horse. Eventually, they will not work because the horse is dead. It is now known that the most common cause of this condition is MCS (Multiple Chemical Sensitivities) and how early in life this happens is genetically determined. When I first entered practice, nearly 40 years ago, aplastic anemia was almost unknown. In 30+ years of practice I never saw a case. However, now it is almost an epidemic. This is NOT a case of sudden evolution of mankind but a result of the tremendous increase of invented chemicals we are all exposed to every day.

Aplastic Anemia Aplastic anemia, which primarily affects young people, is a disease in which the stem cells disappear from the bone marrow. Aplastic anemia has a high mortality rate and, even with treatment, quality of life is poor. A lack of stem cells in the bone marrow inhibits the production of blood cells. As a result, patients with this disease are dependent on weekly blood transfusions that require frequent visits to the physician's offices. Both Thymoglobulin and Lymphoglobuline are approved in certain countries outside of the U.S. for treatment of aplastic anemia, and we believe that the majority of sales of Lymphoglobuline in Japan are for the treatment of aplastic anemia. Current treatments for severe aplastic anemia include immunosuppressants and, if necessary, bone marrow transplantation.

Chapters at Harrison's ABSTRACT Background Hepatitis-associated aplastic anemia is a variant of aplastic anemia in which aplastic anemia follows an acute attack of hepatitis. The aplastic anemia, however, is often fatal if untreated. To characterize the illness, investigate the role of hepatitis viruses, and assess the response to immunosuppressive treatment, we studied patients with the syndrome who were referred to the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Methods Standard hematologic and biochemical tests and measurements of bone marrow cellularity were used to monitor the patients' response to treatment. Serum was assayed for antibodies and antigens related to hepatitis A, B, and C viruses and for the RNA of hepatitis C and GB virus C by the polymerase chain reaction.

I am manic-depressive. In June, my doctor put me on Depakote to stabilize the mood swings. Over a long period of time without any side effects, my blood tests started to show that I was losing red and white blood cells. I was taken off of Depakote and my cell count went back up. With my disorder, I obviously can't stay off the Depakote, so I am being put on lithium. Is there anything else I can do? I really want to start taking my Depakote again, but my doctor is too nervous. A.

76. Aplastic Anemia And Viral Hepatitis aplastic anemia and viral hepatitis Prof. Earlier reports implicatedhepatitis NonA,NonB in hepatitis induced aplastic anemia (4;20). http://www.ikp.unibe.ch/lab2/aplan.html

Aplastic anemia and viral hepatitis Prof. J. Reichen In ten patients referred to the NIH for supposed viral hepatitis induced aplastic anemia, serologic tests against hepatitis A, B and C were negative; 3 had hepatitis G; the authors conclude that it is immune-mediated and probably not related to the known hepatitis viruses (1). In a prospective study of 5500 children with viral hepatitis aplastic anemia was observed in 4 (0.07 %); none had hepatitis A or B (19). Hepatitis A. Case reports, mostly in children (7). A prospective case control study from Thailand found the presence of IgG but not IgM to confer a relative risk of 2.9 for the development of aplastic anemia; they conclude that hepatitis A is a surrogate marker for an unknown enteric pathogen (10). In the prospective Swedish study, hepatitis A was never implicated (19). Hepatitis B: Up to 1988 four case reports (14). However, in the prospective Swedish study hepatitis B was never implicated (19). Hepatitis C: Most likely not associated. Although there is a high prevalence of anti-HCV (17/90) in patients with aplastic anemia this increases with duration and number of transfusions and is therefore probably transfusion related (16). In one case, autoimmune phenomena associated with hepatitis C (anti-LKM positive) was implicated (18). Hepatitis G : Case reports have implicated hepatitis G because of the temporal association (3;6;11;12). Prevalence about 1.5 % in blood donors; same prevalence in patients with aplastic anemia (26.3 %) as in multitransfused controls (23.1 %), therefore probably not implicated (2).

Prevention Idiopathic aplastic anemia Definition: Idiopathic aplastic anemia is a failure of the bone marrow to properly form all types of blood cells. Alternative Names: Anemia - idiopathic aplastic Causes, incidence, and risk factors: Idiopathic aplastic anemia is a condition that results from injury to the stem cell, a cell that gives rise to other cell types after it divides. Consequently, there is a reduction in all cell types red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets with this type of anemia , which is called pancytopenia. The cause of idiopathic aplastic anemia is unknown, but is thought to be an autoimmune process (the body reacting against its own cells). Causes of other types of aplastic anemia may be chemotherapy radiation therapy toxins , drugs, pregnancy, congenital disorder, or systemic lupus erythematosus Symptoms arise as the consequence of bone marrow failure. Llow red blood cell count (anemia) leads to fatigue and weakness. Low white blood cell count (leukopenia) causes an increased risk of infection. Low platelet count (

All blood cell types are affected. Alternative Names: Anemia - secondary aplastic; Acquired aplastic anemia Causes, incidence, and risk factors: Secondary aplastic anemia results from injury to stem cells. Normal stem cells divide and differentiate into all blood cell types. Thus, when stem cells are injured, there is a reduction in red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. This condition can be caused by chemotherapy, drug therapy to suppress the immune system, radiation therapy, toxins such as benzene or arsenic, drugs, pregnancy, and congenital disorders. When the cause is unknown, it is then referred to as idiopathic aplastic anemia The disease may be acute or chronic and is usually gets worse unless the cause is removed.
