Reports suggestive of severe iron deficiency anaemia.
Total iron deficit (mg) = Body weight (kg) × (Target Hb - Actual Hb) × 2.4 + Iron stores (mg)
If it is a well compensated anaemia, it will not cause cardiac problems,acutely.
But if the anaemia is sudden, it may lead to heart failure.

It takes really some time to build iron stores.
If too much iron is taken in blood transfusion or iv iron there is always possibility of toxicity
Take supplemental iron for long time under professional guidance and also work on root cause
The reports shared are really bad
