I have been suffering from iron deficiency which caused anxiety, panic attacks until diagnosed.

Help me! I had a very low s ferritin as low as 3 but my hemoglobin was 10.5. I also had vitamin D deficiency. I had fear, motion sickness, and vision disturbance for three months before it was diagnosed. I have been now taking my iron pill that's 100mg per day and eating lots of foods that contain iron. Most of my psychological problem has gone away but I still feel dizzy as the surrounding over me is moving. I still get anxiety sometimes thinking about the past two months. However, I am still feeling dizzy. I wanted to know if anyone felt like me due to iron deficiency. When will I be back to normal

@nithesh what you are describing are typical symptoms of anemia. They will go away, the dizziness will go. I was terribly dizzy, my hemoglobin was 8.3. It creeps up on you so slowly that by the time you realize it, you are severely deficient in iron. Have patience, it will take around three months to be back to yourself, but each week you will feel a bit better.
