Severe anemia can affect the heart. Symptoms described likely to be due to anemia
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on 'Ask A Doctor' forum.
Body pain, shortness of breath, and swelling of feet can all be due to anemia.
Thus I suggest you get your hemoglobin checked.
As you have mentioned that your anemia is due to decreased production of Blood, I would like to know your primary diagnosis.
In addition, I would suggest you consult a Cardiologist for clinical assessment and get your cardiovascular system checked.
Long-standing anemia can affect the cardiovascular system.
excessive itching and feeling of crawling on the skin can be due to dry skin, raised bile salts, or even psychological.
I suggest you get liver function tests done and also consult a psychologist if no test results are abnormal.
If you have more queries, I will be glad to answer.
Thanks and take care
Dr. Shailja Puri
