I've just been told that my iron levels are low.
I'm having another blood test in two weeks to check for coeliac.
I've stupidly googled and scared myself, so thought I'd see if anyone can reassure me!
I think I have symptoms of low iron, which I've been writing off as anxiety - exhaustion, occasional breathlessness, occasional palpitations.
I am overweight, have a dreadful diet at the moment.
Under a lot of stress.
Fairly heavy periods.
Google tells me that heavy periods can be a cause, but also mentioned stomach and bowel cancer, so being anxious, these are the things I've picked up on.
Please come and tell me what to expect and hand me a grip!
