I am 67 & having cancer of colon and bladder. Had successful surgery during end of august,2008 followed by chemo and radiation theraphy & since then passing a stable health, more or less. Last CEA was 1.89 ng/ml and other parameter found to be normal having haemoglobin at 11.2 g/dl.I am on mircera for 6 cycle that stabiged my Hb more then 11 ng/dl from 9.5 mg/dl with no adverse reaction. Taken mircera on 24th feb,2012 but, had fever with severe shivering followed by very serious loose motion that made me very weak . After stability, i am on cefixime 200mg 2 times daily to cure lef sided pulmonery inflammatory lession & Rt. sided pleural thickening of lung for 7 days & seems improving. My latest S. creatine is 1.69 mg/dl.

Hello matlabmsr, & welcome to the site. I am so sorry no one has answered your questions or answered you plea for help before now. There are just so many questions on this site, it's hard to get to them all. After reading your coments about your cancer & condition, it made my problems seem so small! We are a great support group, not really medical professionals. (there are a few RN's on the site altho')Your hemoglobin sounds ok at 11. from 9.5. Normal as your know is 12 - 16, but mine runs at 11 all the time. I have to take ferrous gluconate to help, but that's ok with me. Your creatine at 1.69 is high as is mine at 1.4. What is your GFR is you know? Mine runs 39.99, & normal is >=60. That gives you a better idea of what is really going on with your kidneys.
