Hey ive been diagnosed with low iron around a month ago, I’ve been taking iron supplements once a day as suggested by the dr, I have had some time off work as it’s been affecting my ability to do my job, I felt as though I got to a point where I could return to work so I went back Monday and I was okay but come Tuesday I felt really wobbly, dizzy out of breath and just awful, it’s quite a physically demanding job where I’m up and down stairs, ladders, carrying heavy paint, using paint machines, its really affecting my mental health, I’m worried about my financial situation if I lose my job (my employer has mentioned it’s a possibility) I’m worried about my ability to return to work and how it’s affecting not only myself but everyone around me.
Female | 25
It seems like your persistent iron deficiency anemia is still troublesome. Low iron levels can cause symptoms like weakness, dizziness, and shortness of breath, especially during physical activities. This can affect your work and mental health. Please consult your doctor if symptoms continue, as there may be issues with iron absorption or another underlying condition.

It is not easy to estimate a patient's survival days as they vary. It is prudent to look for advice from your grandfather's doctor who is a sub-specialist in nephrology and cardiology. They may give you a more exact status on his condition and sometimes they can also tell you about the possible complications.

last night after having a margarita & hitting my weed pen a few times, i began feeling extremely nauseous. i went to the bathroom where the nausea worsened & my anxiety began to get bad. i started pacing back & forth & taking deep breaths to calm down. as the nausea got worse i started getting really lightheaded & felt like i had to lay down. i layed down in the bathroom & my friends said i was super pale & extremely sweaty. what happened?
Female | 20
It's possible that the ALCOHOL and weed caused nausea and dizziness.. When consumed in large amounts, both substances can cause low blood pressure, which can lead to feeling lightheaded and sweaty.. Anxiety can also cause similar symptoms.. The best course of action is to avoid excessive alcohol and any such products use and seek medical attention if symptoms persist...
