Anaemia

Anaemia is a condition that occurs when the body's red blood cell count is less than normal. Red blood cells contain haemoglobin, an iron-based protein that helps blood cells carry oxygen. When you are anaemic, your blood fails to supply proper oxygen to your organs and tissues.

Common symptoms include those like fatigue, pale skin, a fast or irregular heartbeat, shortness of breath, chest pain, dizziness, cognitive problems, headaches, lack of energy, hair loss and high/low blood pressure.
