Now I am slightly anemic !  Anyone else

Yes..  I have a couple times in the past.   I try to eat foods with more iron in them and I also take a good quality iron pill a couple times a week.   When I was first anemic, I took them every day but now I just take them a couple times a week or even more around my period.  And my iron levels have been really good.

Hi I’m new on here and going for some blood tests today to check for anemia. I’m scared too as been exhasuted and now my eyes are slightly jaundiced which apparently can happen with anemia. Fed up of feeling off kilter with all these new symptoms xx
