Anyone else has anemia here?

I get fatigued often, sun is my worst enemy. So far all my tests have been fine..

Tried iron supplements but they made me sick so often I had to quit them. I modified my diet but it's still messing with me.

identify why you have anemia, if there is a medical cause, it won't go away without addressing that. For me it was celiac disease.

how did the supplements make you sick?

@Miram They told me high doses would make my stomach ill so I was told to stop after seeing blood. I freaked out. I'm okay now though. They told me to fix the diet to avoid the supplements and that's what I did.

They only think it's minor. Since everything else came out clear. So internal bleeding was excluded too.

Still need to review the meds tho with my consultant.

@SW-User what medication? Perhaps there is more to explain the fatigue than anemia alone.

@Miram I follow mostly what medics say. When I don't like what they say or doubt them I turn to private consultancy
