What Are Causes And Symptoms Of Anemia?
I am suspecting that I have anemia. I am always tired, I always crave ice and eat it, I have acne, I am very pale, my hands and feet are always cold and my head is always fuzzy when I get up/move rapidly after staying still, all of which I read could be caused by anemia. What do you think?

Hi
Tiredness and dizziness can be caused by low blood sugar/ low blood pressure/ or low Hemoglobin (anemia).
Dizziness on waking up or sudden change in posture can be due to postural hypotension.
Coming to your query, Nutritional deficiencies like iron/ VitaminB12/ folic acid.
You can get a complete hemogram to know if there is any problem with counts, also get your blood sugar and blood pressure checked to rule out the causes I have listed above
Regards
