Re: anemic, lethargic and cooooold!
 
did your tests include thyroid function tests?

low thyroid hormone can cause lethargy and feeling cold.

Who says you can't have two (three) things going on?

Just a thought

Re: anemic, lethargic and cooooold!
 
I would like to offer another possibility, that some of the symptoms are coincidental and not all connected to one explanation... when was the last time you had a Muga or ECHO? Both Herceptin and Tykerb have the potential to ping on the Left Ventrical of the heart. This is exactly how I felt when my LVEF was at 45%. My energy was zilch and my leg muscles felt like I had climbed a mountain if I had only walked up 3 stairs.

Exactly, Lani... cold can also be a reaction to thyroid/hormonal issues...

(Am I the only one here who feels like I am a member of House's team sometimes, looking for converse and contrary possibilities? )
