I always thought that I was anemic but my doctors never took it seriously so I never bothered to read about it. My understanding of anemia was limited to the idea that it could cause fatigue and prevent me from donating blood. There are different types of anemia, but iron deficiency is the most common. Follow every diet plan set up for you by your doctors, get regular checkups, and if you feel that something just doesn't seem right with how your feeling don't hesitate to get checked out. Better safe then sorry!
