Anemic, Breathing Problem, Fluttering Heart. On Iron Pills. Advise?
Just wondering. I have been diagnosed a few years ago with being anemic. I haven't taken iron pills for a few years now but all of a sudden feel like my breathing gets wierd. Is this a sign my iron may be low? I think about my breathing too much and I think this interferes with breathing normally. I get heart flutters too.
Blood hemoglobin levels can give a clue of anemia. With prolonged untreated anemia there can be breathing as well as heart failure symptoms and so it should be treated adequately.If your hemoglobin in in normal range then consult doctor for other reasons for breathlessness
