Question stop breathing

I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS OVER THE LAST 6 SIX YR.'S WITH ANEMIA. MY HEMOGLOBIN STAYS AROUND 8 OR 9. LATELY I HAVE BEEN AWAKENED AT NIGHT BY WHAT FEELS AS IF I HAVE STOPPED BREATHING AND I AM GASPING FOR BREATH.
HAS ANYONE EVER EXPERIENCED THIS, AND CAN THIS BE A SOMETHING CAUSED BY ANEMIA?
THANKS

Sounds more like sleep apnea, have you ever been checked for that?

NANCY, THANKS FOR REPLYING. THAT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING I SHOULD CHECK OUT. I ALWAYS ASSUMED IT WAS CAUSED BY ANEMIA I DIDN'T REALLY CONSIDER OTHER CAUSES. THANKS AGAIN!

As a child i was anemic and then it stopped once i hit teen years. But just this year found out it's back. But before my doc caught in on a blood test or tests, i had a BAD time breathing! Throughout the day and at night especially. I think if you have anemia and trouble breathing that you should talk to the doc about it and get prescribed some meds for it. The doc immediately put me on a huge iron/mineral supplement and when I take that the breathing is just fine..
Take care.

Sleep Apnea needs to be ruled out, but anemia at your degree can definitely cause problems breathing. Please, let your MD know what is going on.
