This confirms iron deficiency anemia. Continue iron tablets with meals. If fever continues, rule out infection. Use antacids like rabeprazole if there is gastric irritation.

I got my leg rod removed a month back and from the past few days I am experiencing full sleepiness, extreme fatigue, shortness of breath, and sometimes blurry vision. I have attached my blood report taken before surgery. Is any deficiency causing these symptoms. I suffer from GERD with mild hiatus hernia for a few years. I also suffer from frequent UTI. What medication should I take to overcome this problem. Is it due to anemia that all this is happening?
