What are the diagnostic features of iron deficiency?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The features which can indicate anemia are unexplained weakness, brittle nails, chest pain (without any reason), fatigue and breathlessness. If you are having most of the symptoms consider taking a test and consulting a general practitioner.
Dr. Kamran Suggests...
Take a Anti Cardiolipin Ab IgG Test or Take a P1NP Test
