I'm 17 and i was pronouced anemic about 2 weeks ago....the doctor gave me some iron pills 325mg and
told me to come back in 2 monthes for more blood work. They found me to be anemic on accident i went
in for some follow-up blood work from a case of mono. I have a serious stomach problem and am on zantac
150mg for that....but the iron is still messing with my system...not in a very pleasant way. are there other treatments
that are avaliable besides the iron.....i hear something about birth control pills that would help and be better
is that a myth?

please help!!
