Waiting for docs appointment hopefully today, and blood test, then usual 5 day wait for blood results. In meantime I'm a bit worried because I feel so very awful so if anyone can advis that would be great!

I am anaemic due to large fibriods, had a big long 8 week bleed recently which has just finished. I have been in bed (mostly) for 8 days, last 3 particularly awful. Its not just total flu-like exaustion but I ache, all over, especially my neck, and I have lymph nodes up at back of neck too. Have had dreadful headache for about same amount of time.

Could this be low iron or do I have flu? No temperature/cough etc which makes me think iron but have never felt this bad before with it.

Anyway any advice v gratefully recieved.
