Does Heat Worsen Symptoms Of Microcytosis?
Hello, I have microcytosis/ iron def. anemia, today was treated with second of 2 infed treatments. Ferriti was 8. I have been feeling shaky, weak, and short of breath. Today was also quite hot where I live and humid too. I feel terrible! Is heat something that typically makes symptoms worse?

no as such heat has no relation with microcytosis or iron deficiency. your symptoms are due to iron deficincy anemia. not due to hot and humid environment. take treatment of youe disease. take high iron containing diet like jeggary, green leafy vegetables, dryfruits etc.
