Iron transfusions and health anxiety
hello, I have been anemic for years. I used to take iron supplements, but they didn’t really do much but over the past year I developed severe OCD and health anxiety. My doctor has been begging me to try iron transfusions. I am utterly scared. I want to feel better. I’m tired of feeling so tired and cold and restless, and having horrible anxiety. However, I will deep dive and read about everybody’s bad experiences with iron transfusions, and it scares me away from getting one. But I finally told my doctor I would try one. I’m just looking to see if sometimes people forget to post the good things about them.
