Autoimmune hemolytic anemia. Occurs when the body produces antibodies that coat red blood cells. |
In autoimmune hemolytic anemia, the body produces autoantibodies to red blood cell membrane proteins. (size? shape RBCs?) The FATIGUE??? Help? Diagnosis help The basics |

Were the red blood cell counts dropping over time?
Even if in the 'normal range?' (Maybe doctors might find the immature red blood cells, but most of the time not.) They often find the blood in urine but don't realize its significance.
After a LONG time (15+ years) the blood in urine may not be as findable, but in an acute attack, it is there. Also the reticulocyte count needs to be tracked over time. Showing up high in an acute attack ... (at 2.5 days most obvious) & over a long time ... too low ... but still the CBC (complete blood counts) don't look much off
I wonder whether FDR's similar symptoms were from 2nd hand exposure? Did he meet with WWII Officers & soldiers who were sufficiently exposed to it? Don't forget, there is a strong 'second hand' solvent exposure with 2-butoxyethanol (n-butyl ether chemicals) The 'gulf war' troops wondered why their children born before the 90-91 war & their spouses were coming down with the same 'symptoms' Most likely there would be a realization that the immune system is overactive ... but not going after bacteria as it should - Attacking the person, & some viruses. The immune system becomes instantly autoimmune. And there are a whole host of autoimmune issues to deal with after it starts with the red blood cells: test for autoimmune hemolytic anemia.
