    Dear Joan

    If you are anaemic you will feel very tired, like you do, :( look pale, easily get cold, rapid pulse, palpitations, headaches. You do not necessarily get all these symptoms.

    Less common anaemia symptoms can include tinnitus and an altered sense of taste.

    Love

    The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.

    If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.

    Hi Joan
    I hope you get it sorted - the good news is that if it is amaemia it is usually fairly easily sorted out.
    Good luck
    Love
