When do I need to see a haematologist?

A haematology evaluation is necessary if you have unexplained fatigue, fever that lasts for a long time, bleeding that is unusual, infections that are happening frequently or abnormal blood test results.

Do all anaemias need specialised treatment?

No, not all. Some are purely nutritional, while some may be signals of deep-seated diseases like marrow disorders. A top haematologist at Holy Family Hospital will figure out the exact cause.

Can blood cancers be cured?

Most leukemias and lymphomas become remission after the treatment they get with the latest therapies. The patient’s condition being diagnosed early and the care given by the blood specialists are the main factors that lead to this result.

What is bone marrow biopsy and is it painful?

It is an examination of bone marrow done by local anaesthesia which aims at understanding the function of marrow. The majority of patients report only a slight, short-lived pain.
