They did all the tests on her too, but never found where she was losing blood. Hope they can help your grandfather.

Wow, this is so strange that she is having almost the exact same problems as my grandpa & no one knows why. Gayle, can blood just vaporize when you get older, or is it possible they aren't making new like they should?
