I am looking to better understand my iron deficiency anemia. What blood counts where low on your blood test.

what do you do to help with your symptoms

I think two iron pills is a lot, though your body may be able to process it out. Sometimes it will cause your nose to bleed.
Try get your iron from vegetables which I heard your body can handle a lot better.
