What are the like normal procedures someone has to go through when they have anemia? like do you have to be hospitilized sometimes? do you need specific medicines? i know the symptoms of it and what it is. but i was wondering like google doesnt work for me so if anyone knows of any info on anemia can you let me know because im scared to go into my doctor today for the results of my cbc test(my blood test) im really nervous because he said he thinks i have anemia so yeah, let me know ok?

also i would search google/internet myself but everytime i open google or type in anemia the IE/OPERA and firefox closes. like wtf?
but yea anyways.

Anemia can mimic different health conditions. The real way you can find out for sure is to go to the doctor and find out. Anemia usually isn't life-threatening and most people can adjust their lifestyles. There are different types of anemia and treatment for each is different.

There's NOTHING we can tell you to make you feel better. Go to the doctor. Anemia is not the end of the world, usually there are ways to make you better.

As said above just see the doctor. Chances are you'll be on iron tablets and monitored every so often. No biggy.

I used to be Anemic, and I would have to go in for blood tests about every 3 months. They put me on iron, and also had me change up my diet... so that my body could absorb the iron. There are different types of anemia, but it's a pretty easy thing for the doctors to catch and treat.

I've dealt with anemia since I was pregnant with Iz. Many women become anemic while pregnant, mine just never went away.

I was taking iron supplements for a while, but they just murdered my stomach, so I stopped taking them. I just watch what I eat, basically. I eat a lot of iron rich foods like spinach, nuts, broccoli, kidney beans, tofu, ect.
