Answers:

There's more than one type of anemia. If your anemia is caused by an iron deficiency then an iron supplement or eating food rich in iron would help. Another type of anemia is hemolytic anemia. Sometimes it's caused by medications, but in my case it was my own immune system destroying my red blood cells. This type of anemia is much more serious, and it can kill you. I was in the hospital, had 2 blood transfusions, and took very high doses of Prednisone to shut down my immune system. Blood tests can tell the difference, and it's much easier to treat the iron deficiency type.
