Ongoing Iron Deficiency Anemia
I have been feeling very tired during the day and night earlier last year I had a blood test last month and my iron levels were 36 and low 8 months ago. So they put me on 325mg ferrous sulfate. I had a blood test done recently and iron levels are still very low but it is lower than before why is my iron levels still getting lower? Is it serious? Could this become dangerous? Should I see a hematologist? Will I get a iron infusion?
