What Are The Signs And Symptoms Of Diarrhea?
Question: I noticed when I pulled my lower eye lid down there is no red or pink color, just white. I'm exhausted with very little effort. Could I be anemic(sic)?
Brief Answer:
Yes, you are likely to be anemic
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome and thanks for your query.
The fact that you get exhausted easily and that you are pale point towards anemia.
It is better to be investigated.
You need to do a complete blood count ( CBC), Serum Iron, Serum creatinine, a blood smear and stool occult blood examination as the first tine examinations.
Do get back to me with the results and further queries.
