FAQs
What is a bone marrow test?
This is a quick (about 15 minutes) and simple procedure which can be carried out in the outpatient clinic to help with diagnosis of certain blood disorders, and sometimes other disorders. Local anaesthetic is given to numb an area of skin usually over the pelvis (just above the buttock) and a needle is used to take a small sample of bone marrow. The procedure usually only takes about 15 minutes and the results are usually available in about three days to ten days, sooner for some tests.
When is bone marrow transplant done?
Bone marrow transplant can be autologous (patient receives his own stem cells) or allogenic (patent receives stem cells from a donor). Autologous transplant is mostly done for multiple Myeloma and Lymphomas. Allogenic transplant is done for leukemias, bone marrow failure disorders, Thalassemia and primary immunodeficiency etc.
I have iron deficiency. What food should I take to improve it?
Meat, beef, liver, and shrimp are great iron-rich foods. If you are a vegetarian, you will have to get your iron from sources that are not as readily absorbable. Some of these sources are spinach, tofu, asparagus, pineapple, dried fruits and iron-enriched breads and grains. If you are not allergic, add some almonds and other nuts to your diet for a quick boost in iron.
What are the symptoms of Haematological Cancer?
The symptoms of haematological illnesses can be many and varied. Such symptoms may include unusual bleeding or infection, fatigue, shortness of breath, bone pain, enlargement of lymph glands, weight loss, night sweats and generally feeling unwell or run down.
Are haematological cancers treatable?
Almost all haematological cancers can be treated and many of them can be cured by modern chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Key for successful treatment is strict compliance and regular follow up because treatment of these cancers is usually for a long period.
