Hi,
Thanks for asking.
I am Dr. Prakash HM and I will be answering your query.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows:

2. Addition to anemia, lung function is also important in improvement of breathing.
3. Improved hemoglobin along with breathing exercises will help in reducing breathlessness and stamina.
Another 2-3g% should help. Complete test for bleeding evaluation. Continue with iron medication.
