In the United States, thousands of men, women and children are stricken with these non-contagious bone marrow diseases every year. They occur when the bone marrow stops making enough healthy blood cells. Although all of the causes are still unknown, they have been linked to toxins and viruses that we are in contact with every day. APLASTIC ANEMIA MDS PNH Aplastic anemia can be traced as far back as 1888 when a famous German pathologist, Dr. Paul Ehrlich, studied the case of a pregnant woman who died of bone marrow failure. It wasn't until 1904 that this disorder was termed aplastic anemia. Aplastic anemia occurs when the bone marrow stops making enough blood cells. The bone marrow is almost empty of blood forming cells and is described as

What Is Fanconi Anemia And How Is It Diagnosed? Fanconi anemia (FA), named for Swiss pediatrician, Guido Fanconi, is one of the inherited anemias that leads to bone marrow failure (aplastic anemia). It is a recessive disorder: if both parents carry a defect (mutation) in the same FA gene, each of their children has a 25% chance of inheriting the defective gene from both parents. When this happens, the child will have FA. There are at least seven FA genes: A, C, D2, E, F, G and BRCA2 (as announced in the article entitled Biallelic Inactivation of BRCA2 in Fanconi Anemia in the July 26, 2002 edition of Science ). Six of these genes have been cloned. These six account for more than 85% of the cases of Fanconi anemia. Mutations in FA-A and FA-C account for FA in 76% of patients worldwide. FA occurs equally in males and females. It is found in all ethnic groups. Though considered primarily a blood disease, it may affect all systems of the body. Many patients eventually develop acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). Older patients are extremely likely to develop head and neck, esophogeal, gastrointestinal, vulvar and anal cancers. Patients who have had a successful bone marrow transplant and, thus, are cured of the blood problem associated with FA still must have regular examinations to watch for signs of cancer. Many patients do not reach adulthood.

Home Sign In OverView Breast Cancer ... Tissue Cleansing Anemia One of the most common disorders caused by nutritional deficiency is anemia due to an insufficiency of B-12. This nutrient has the largest molecular structure of any single vitamin and consequently presents a serious absorption problem. The typical approaches to treating anemia are to administer large dosages of ferrous sulfate (iron sulfate) which may cause gastrointestinal bleeding, or a 1 c.c. (1000 mcg.) intramuscular injection of vitamin B-12, which is difficult to maintain over a long period of time. Absorption of B-12 in the diet is reduced by an erosion of the mucous lining of the intestines and decreased hydrochloric acid production in the stomach. Stress has also been implicated in reducing the amount of blood flow to the stomach wall (eschemia), and thus inhibiting the absorption of B-12. Further, many people are lacking a protein called "Intrinsic Factor" that may also be necessary for absorption. Vegetarians are often at risk of deficiency because B-12 is only found in animal products. Recently, a number of researchers have found that the Schilling Test, the standard for measuring B-12 in the blood, does not accurately account for utilization of B-12.

Anemia: When Low Iron Is the Cause Printer-friendly version Email this article What is anemia? Anemia occurs when your blood doesn't have enough hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is a protein in your red blood cells that carries oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body. A common cause of anemia is not having enough iron. (Your body needs iron to make hemoglobin.) Return to top Symptoms of anemia Often, no symptoms Paleness Feeling tired Unusual shortness of breath during exercise Fast heartbeat Return to top What can cause low iron levels? A number of things can cause you to be low in iron: Lack of iron in the diet . This is mostly a problem for children and young women. Children who drink a lot of milk and don't eat iron-rich foods and young women who follow "fad" diets may be at risk for iron deficiency. Growth spurts . Children under age 3 are growing so fast that their bodies may have a hard time keeping up with the amount of iron they need. Pregnancy Blood loss . This is a common reason for iron deficiency anemia in adults. Heavy periods may cause anemia. Blood loss can also be caused by internal bleeding, usually in the digestive tract. A stomach ulcer, ulcerative colitis, cancer, or taking aspirin or similar medicine for a long time can cause bleeding in your stomach or intestines. That's why it's important to find the reason for a low iron level.

34. Sickle Cell Anemia Sickle cell anemia occurs when a person inherits two abnormal genes that causetheir red blood cells to change shape. What Is Sickle Cell anemia? http://kidshealth.org/teen/diseases_conditions/blood/sickle_cell_anemia.html

KidsHealth Teens Blood Disorders Sickle cell anemia is a hereditary disorder that mostly affects people of African ancestry, but also occurs in other ethnic groups, including people who are of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern descent. More than 70,000 Americans have sickle cell anemia. And about 2 million Americans - and one in 12 African Americans - have sickle cell trait (this means they carry one gene for the disease, but do not have the disease itself). Sickle cell anemia occurs when a person inherits two abnormal genes (one from each parent) that cause their red blood cells to change shape. Instead of being flexible and round, these cells are more rigid and curved in the shape of the farm tool known as a sickle - that's where the disease gets its name. The shape is similar to a crescent moon. What Is Sickle Cell Anemia? Sickle cell anemia is a blood disorder that affects hemoglobin (pronounced: hee -muh-glow-bin), a protein found in red blood cells that helps carry oxygen throughout the body. Red blood cells with normal hemoglobin ( HbA ) move easily through the bloodstream, delivering oxygen to all of the cells of the body. Normal red blood cells are shaped like doughnuts with the centers partially scooped out and are soft and flexible.

Katy's Story Katelyn Rose Hubbell turned four years old on June 26th 1997, and had a big party at her home in Fisher, Illinois. She was a happy, healthy little girl, until July 11, 1997 when she was diagnosed with a life threatening bone marrow failure disease called Severe Aplastic Anemia. In case you didn't know, bone marrow is the soft spongy material inside your bones that is home to stem cells. Stem Cells are the little factories that produce the three types of blood cells, that along with a liquid called plasma, makes up your blood. In people with Aplastic Anemia, the workers in the "factory" go on strike. They do not produce enough blood cells to keep the patient alive. There are three main types of blood cells.

38. ADAP Drugs: Erythropoeitin Used to treat anemia associated with HIV infection or AZT therapy.(EPO, Epogen, Eprex, Procrit, epoetin alfa) http://www.atdn.org/access/drugs/eryt.html

erythropoeitin (EPO, Epogen, Eprex, Procrit, epoetin alfa) Drug description Erythropoetin is used to treat anemia associated with HIV infection or AZT therapy. Anemia is a condition due to a low number of red blood cells. Erythropoetin is a natural hormone secreted by the kidneys that acts on the bone marrow to stimulate production of red blood cells. Recombinant EPO is a synthetic version of this hormone. EPO is approved for treatment of anemia in both AZT-treated HIV+ people, and people with chronic kidney failure. Ortho Biotech, who makes Procrit, has a Patient Assistance Program wich can be reached at (800) 553-3851). Side effects EPO is generally well tolerated. Side effects can include chest pain, swelling due to retention of fluid, fast heart beat, headache, high blood pressure, increase in number and concentration of circulating red blood cells, seizures, shortness of breath, skin rash, pain in joints, diarrhea, nausea, fatigue, or flu-like syndrome after each dose. Dosage EPO must be injected. Initial dosage in studies was 100 units/kg IV 3 times weekly for 8-12 weeks. If the response to treatment is not satisfactory in terms of reducing transfusion requirement after 8 weeks, the dose may be increased by 50-100 units/kg. How long it may take to work In studies, many individuals who received transfusions did not require them after 2-3 months of treatment with EPO.
