Hi all just looking for some opinions please. I am off course going to speak to my GP or pharmacist first!
My son has been having a really crap time health wise at the moment with his asthma and hayfever and it has been suggested that he may be slightly anaemic. Blood tests have been taken today. Others (friends/family) have suggested this too and some of them are doctors and nurses.
I have to wait 5 days for these results being the weekend and all but can a 13 year old take iron supplements? The poor lad is really not right and sleeping so much and his skin just drained of colour and being a mum I just want to help him now not in 5 days!
I know it may seem dramatic but he is my baby boy and it worries me so if I can start to help him I will.
