Question for Dr Mona:
Dear Dr. Mona, I'm anemic and I feel my condition is worsening, I was wondering if I could get any advice about what to do? These days I've been more aware of my heartbeat than usual, my heart is beating either very quickly or irregularly. I'm feeling extremely tired and weak and I can't bring myself to do very much during the day. I'm having frequent chest pains or discomfort and I feel very light headed and occasionally come close to dizziness. After the results of my latest blood test about two months ago I was told that I have severe iron deficiency. Could there be any other reason for these symptoms?
