I just read something saying that your pulse oxygen level will be off if your anemic..will it be higher or lower?
I'm on & off anemic, fluctuating between severe to moderate to nonexistant anemia.. so i'm just wondering if my p/o levels have been off before..

The only way for them to really know if your pulse ox is higher or lower than what the monitor reads is for them to draw a blood gas. *steps back and shivers in fear*
