well i'd suggest you at least call the doctor who diagnosed your anemia to discuss these symptoms. usually a person who's diagnosed with anemia is put on a treatment regimen that's appropriate to the type of anemia (for example iron supplements or b12 injections). unfortunately only your doctor can explain what might be going on with your health and recommend treatment. you may be able to have this conversation by phone in order to avoid an office visit charge but it depends on the health care provider. i'm sorry you're feeling so ill and hope you get some answers soon!
my last cbc showed my levels were very low-anemia- and cant stay awake. should i seek immediate medical care? . i was diagnosed with anemia about a month ago and my last cbc showed the hemoglobin mcv mch mchc are all low. i then had my cycle; it was heavy full of large clots and lasted for approximately 6 weeks. now i cant stay awake and sleep about 20. 5 hours out of 24. i dont have any medical insurance and i pay for doctor bills out of pocket at time of care. i have almost fainted but not quite. should i seek immediate medical attention or will it get better over time?
