[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have them check to see if you're a thalassemia carrier. If you are, you are healthy but you have smaller than usual red blood cells which can cause a false positive on an anemia test. If that's the case, all the iron in the world is not going to make it better. It just is what it is.[/quote] +1 If you have ancestors from the Mediterranean region, this could be it. I didn't know I was a carrier until I got pregnant and the OB had me tested (Italian American).[/quote]
