Diagnosed With Anemia, On Iron Pills. Missed Pills. What To Do?

Hi, i was recently diagnosed with Anemia the other day and the anemia is so bad to the point where i cant even get out of my bed otherwise i will faint or blackout. I havent started the Iron pills yet because they arent in stock at my pharmacy. I have already missed about a week of school and im really not strong enough to go back. What do i do?
