Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was at the ER Feb 7. Diagnosis confirmed anemia and pleurisy. They prescribed 325 mg of iron to be taken 3x a day and an NSAID for the pleurisy pain (I do not have the dosage on that at this moment). Since I was diagnosed as severely anemic five years ago, how do they know that the iron supplements will be sufficient to resolve the problem. Shouldn't they have done more tests to see what is causing the anemia?
