Ignored anemia problem

Question

Asked for Female, 18 Years

I have severe anemia that comes in waves. I also have "gigantic blood platelets" that i was sent to a children's hospital for, just for the doctor there to say it's not a problem. I'm always tired, extremely weak, have no appetite, dizzy, bad headaches, etc. I've tried iron supplements but they didn't help, and no one has referred me to anyone that could help. The last time i went to the hospital, my blood count was at 8.7, but they didnt want to do a blood transfusion since im young.
