I am Anemic. Side Effects? ?!


Question: I am Anemic!. Side Effects!? !?
I have been anemic for about a month!. I changed my diet so its healthier!. And I'm not overweight!. I am taking two iron pills a day, each with 264% of my daily iron!. I took another blood test on Friday, and it came back saying that I was still really anemic!. How can I get over this!? What are some serious consequences with being anemic!?

I have an appointment this upcoming week with a "blood" doctor!.

Please help!. I'm really scared!.

Answers:
Anemia can be warning of other serious conditions, it means that your body, for whatever reason, is not providing enough red and white blood cells!. It causes energy loss, headaches, nausea, weakness, among other things!. Luckily, it is usually a quick fix- maybe a vitamin deficiency!. Take B12 and B6 as well as folic acid (at least ask your doctor about it when you go in for your appointment!.) Eating red meat helps significantly!. Steak (rare is better) and liver!. Eat plenty of dark green vegetables, most importantly spinach!. Going to the doctor immediately is a good idea, but don't worry to much! It's common and most of the time nothing more serious then a deficiency!. I hope you feel better soon! Remember - B vitamins and red meat!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Anemia diminishes the capability of individuals who are affected to perform physical activities!. This is a result of one's muscles being forced to depend on anaerobic metabolism!. The lack of iron associated with anemia can cause many complications, including hypoxemia, brittle or rigid fingernails, cold intolerance, and possible behavioral disturbances in children!. Hypoxemia resulting from anemia can worsen the cardio-pulmonary status of patients with pre-existing chronic pulmonary disease!. Cold intolerance occurs in one in five patients with iron deficiency anemia, and becomes visible through numbness and tingling!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You should really consider eating meat!. The protein and the iron work together better!.
Side effects: hair loss, weight loss, exhaustion, dizziness, fainting, loss of menstruation, infertility!.
Maybe your doctor can give you a blood transfusion!. That would help!. Feel better!Www@Answer-Health@Com
