Shortness of breath due to iron anaemia?
-
bout two months ago I got my blood test done which showed very low levels of hemoglobin. I then got my serum iron test done too and I was diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia. I was on medication. Although some symptoms (such as tingling in the legs) have gone, I have started to feel shortness of breath, and especially from evening onwards, it increases. This shortness of breath is there since the last three days. I had this feeling earlier but then it subsided. Is it possible that my supplement isnt working and that i need a more effective one?
