@jerrysgirl3 Finding the reason for the anemia is the first step to solving it. Here is an article from Mayo Clinic that speaks to anemia. Now, please do not assume you have a nasty disease process going on! It may be a medication is lending itself to creating the anemia. Or your diet is not the right one for you. Do you have access to a registered dietician in your area you can confer with?
https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/anemia/symptoms-causes/syc-20351360
https://www.eatright.org/ will offer you the opportunity to look for someone in your area [see the red button on the upper right]

It's tricky, balancing everything together. But, we owe it to ourselves.

@gingerw OMG what a GREAT link!!! Thank you so much!! I've printed out the info and will take it to my new CLL doctor in early October!! I sent my great primary the link as well. Unfortunately I fall into many of the different categories for anemia because of my autoimmune issues, cancer and food allergies. My RBC numbers have been HORRENDOUS!!! I find getting vitamins from plant based foods is extremely difficult. Most of it is crap but it's either stay away from my food allergens or suffer from extreme hives. 🙁. I've had several doctors tell me they would find me a nutritionist - nothing. I've called one - no response. The nutritionist in the local hospital was totally clueless and had me eating gluten free hamburger buns that caused rash!!! I will look at the eating right link next. These are the best....as are you 😊❤️
Thank you.
