Am i anemic???!


Question:

Am i anemic???

i think i'm anemic. i bruise extremely easy and some people told me it was becasue of lack of iron in my blood. what are other symptoms of anemia??? and is there anything else i should know???


Answers:

Easy bruising would be more likely due to low platelets in your blood (thrombocytopenia) which are responsible for clotting your blood. If you have always been this way, I would still get checked for a CBC (complete blood count). If this is a recent change, it could constitute an emergency and should be checked immediately. Message boards are no substitute for a doctor visit. I wish you the best.
