answer:Is it an iron anemia? Were you told to take iron? Honestly, if I were you I would go for one appointment to a hematologist, I would not trust one evaluation from a GP or internist. I have iron anemia, and Slowfe iron pills over the counter do help bring my numbers up into normal, and I feel much better when they are. Stronger, warmer, more energy, and more resistant to getting sick. But, I do not have abnornal numbers woth my white blood cells, which I think is what neutropenia is, but I am rather unfamiliar with it. If I am right, it lowers your immunity or ability to fight off infection. I hesistate to give advice to just start taking big doses of iron if indeed you mean iron anemia, because some anemias don’t respond correctly, and the other things going on with your blood make-up might influence the treatment. If your doctor did suggest iron, again I suggest Slowfe found in any drug store, at least two a day taken on an empty stomach, best with orange juice or plain water. I take two at once, because I cannot take it within 4 hours of my thryoid med, and best to take on an empty stomach, which does not leave tons of times in the day to take it. It is possible it is a bad test result, this happens way more than people think, and I always say before any treatments or medications get a second/repeat bloodtest. I have had wrong results more than once, it just happened to me a month ago in the hospital they tested my thyroid two days apart, and the difference in results is impossible two days apart, one was wrong, a third test at a different lab confrimed the first result.
