Omg. Now I can prove to my parents that I have anemia. They are like yeah we understand science but how deficiency of iron can be related to ice! Thanks so much.
Yes,this is factual.Before I was diagnosed I would eat ice sunrise to sunset.We even got an ice machine.I got sick and ended up being hospitalized.My iron level was at 6.2
I had trouble falling and staying asleep, heart palpitations, hair loss, fatigue, headaches, very tired looking and was so much paler than my sisters. I got my ferritin and hb checked and they were low. Taking iron and finally feeling good again!

I have always had anemia, as young as 7 years old. Mine is severe, like hair loss, I even sometimes lose eyelashes and eyebrows. It’s scary when they come out in lumps. Feeling just exhausted for no reason and not being able to get out of bed. Yeah not pretty for most of us.

i think i have anemia and low blood pressure its really annoying i’m only 13 I thought I was healthy. I almost fainted in church for standing for so long it sucked because it was my great grandpas anniversary and I had to sit outside.
I used to have really bad craving for ice and kept popping ice cubes into my mouth several times in a day. It got so bad until I have to eat an ice cube everytime before I go to sleep. Then I went to have my blood tested, 8.9 IDA...once I started iron therapy the craving went away in about two weeks time. It still amazes me how the body works

I have anemia same with my dad and his dad. I’ve passed out twice and have woken up with blood everywhere(from my nose) I always felt tired and dizzy too. Once I was jumping down the stairs straight after sitting down and then I remember crashing into my friend at the bottom but not falling. Now I just have to have iron tablets and lots of green veg so I’m getting better. OMG didn’t know the leg thing was related I thought I was just very figity Sorry for boring you with unneeded info T-T
Universe When this happened I was I think 11, I’ve always been agitated😅 and as the nosebleeds became more stronger and came more often I could always tell when they were going to happen.
What type of Iron pills do you take and what sort of green juices do you consume? How often? I have been diagnosed with anemia and it has been difficult to improve.
MC Mc I took blood test but i didn’t have anemia I had low iron but it’s almost the same and I feel terrible I’m just drinking salary juice it helps a little
Have you hear about men eating Needles or a woman eating her own hair. Thats PICA its a medical disorder associated by FE defeciency. PICA is not something you laugh about.
Hey im using his videos to get a headstart on my heme class as well, i start class in two weeks. What are you in school for and what other tools did you use to help?
The ice makes me feel like I’m alive it wakes up my brain and I’m able to function it honestly tastes like the best thing I’ve ever had not to mention it soothes the tongue swelling 😩
A 4-month-old child was anemic. His hemoglobin was 6.5 gm/dL with a hematocrit of 22.4% following a treatment or oral and parenteral iron. His MCV was 64 fL with a MCHC of 29.0%. WBC and PLT counts were normal. Differential showed a slight increase in monocytes (15%). RBC morphology was described as dimorphic (Hypo/Micro and N/N) with polychromasia and pappenheimer bodies present. Serum iron was increased and TIBC decreased. What are the key pieces of information presented in the case study? Hypo/Micro and N/N, with polychromasia and pappenheimer bodies present. 1. What additional testing should be performed? Genetic test
1. Given the age, do you suspect a primary or secondary condition? Why? r.
1. Assuming it is primary, how would it be classified?
I’m medical student and at the same time I’m a patient who is suffering from Iron Deficiency Anemia. I do suggest all who have a PICA syndrome to go to Hematologist, because I had this syndrome which means I reallly wanted to eat chalk and clay, some patients’ organism demands ice or something “uneatable”, mine was chalk. I’m on the treatment and taking some medication. And as a future doctor I looked for extra information about IDA. I’m happy for that I found amazing information from this channel. Thank You Mr. it was helpful 👍🏻
I still have to visit a clinic for a CBC test but I am almost 100% sure that I have IDA because I've been suffering from prolonged menstrual bleeding since December 2021, it last from 2 weeks to more than a month. I was prescribed a medicine for anemia and Vit C and took them for one month. Just last month, I started feeling shortness of breath just by taking the stairs and it never happened before even during hiking. I am also losing a lot of hair for the last few months. Then a few weeks ago, I just started munching on raw rice like I was eating some chips! I am actually eating raw rice as of writing this comment. I couldn't stop!
Kale contains a lot of iron and I see its positive effects more than taking prescribed iron pills from the doctor. KALE IS AMAZING FOR IRON DEFICIENCY.
Pica is different to Pagophagia. Pica can be a craving to any non-nutritional substance like paper, detergent, chalk, etc. due to deficiencies. Pagophagia is a craving to ice.
Thank you so much for this video. I have just been diagnosed with anemia of unknown origin. My ferritin level is six, hemoglobin 10.9 hemocrit 32 . I have an appointment with a gastroenterologist in a week. I am craving ice like crazy!
Hey, I hope you're doing better now. Could I ask you if you experienced headaches due to iron deficiency? Because my ferritin level was 14 and I used to get strong headaches, yet I'm not really sure if that was what caused them since it's borderline deficiency.
"Why do they crave ice, I don't know" 😂😂 You're soo funny and so so awesome ! I hope you know that. And man, first time in 4 years of medical school I fully understood anemia and the concept behind it, all these years I used to mug the indices. Thank you so so much ❤💯💯
Thanks for the video, i would just like to comment that i was anemic for years, most of my life (22 years), exhausted all the time, I went to the doctor and he insisted i increase my meat intake specifically beef, which only made it worse. After travelling to India at age 23 and meeting many people from all over the world, I realised this is old incorrect science. Unfortunately people are still taught this on nutrition degrees. I went vegan and have been vegan or plant based (however you want to label) it for 5 years now, I’m now 28, and now after a recent blood test I am no longer anaemic, have unlimited energy, my doctors actually said i have incredible blood (not my words) it was super dark and purple which is what you want, not a tomato sauce colour he said. My body runs of iron from plants perfectly. According to science heme iron is more bioavailable meaning it is better absorbed, however iron is a pro oxidant which means in excess it can cause inflammation in the body, which we do not want. According to science you have to eat many more plants compared to meat to get the ‘correct’ intake, however because non heme iron is less bioavilable it means the body can regulate the intake better, a slower absorption is ideal for the body. From experience the plant source of iron is so much richer, meaning depending on what greens you eat in actual fact you can eat a small amount of plants to get all the iron you need. If you eat cheap spinach from a supermarket shelf that has been sitting there for days compared to foraging nettles, that’s a huge difference. Unfortunately most studies are not carried out with all the variables. My advice would be to increase your greens, and I don’t mean just iceberg lettuce, I mean rocket, kale, nettles, dandelions, chard, sorrel, cleavers, parsley, corrianer, all dark dark leafy greens in nature. Which may be bitter, but we need that for our digestion to function optimally. Heme iron is actually a carcinogen and we do not as humans need to consume it. Just want to share because being anemic for so long was really debilitating and now I am super happy and healthy. Also just to clarify as a ‘vegan’ you can still eat unhealthy, so i like the term plant based because my diet is pretty much plants with some legumes, nuts, seeds, fruits etc. I avoid refined sugar, simple carbohydrates like bread, white rice, processed foods etc. I eat a whole foods plants based diet, hope this helps someone. Love and sharing xx Some videos: m.ruclips.net/video/D42GJsV-2I4/видео.html m.ruclips.net/video/KQVc8Tpg3T8/видео.html m.ruclips.net/video/5TakgkZai2Q/видео.html
Clicked your video because of the beetroot drawing on the cover! I only recently discovered I’m iron deficient by chance from a screening blood test which came out quite a surprise because I consider myself on a relatively healthy diet with plenty of vitamin C and I have no symptoms. I do have beeturia but always thought it was a personal condition rather than a symptom. Now I know there IS an association!
Wow, this is an informative video. I am going to do blood work Tuesday finally to see if i am anemic. I was wondering your thoughts. I am 29, but since i was a teenager, I would have very bad cramping during my time of the month. I would sometimes black out due to how bad I felt during that time, and get extremely pale and vomit. Flash forward to my mid 20s and i finally decided to get on birth control strictly for making my periods better. Now that they are better, I don't feel horrible during that week like I used to. However, I do still feel constantly tired. I am very pale. I do have restless leg syndrome. Unlike many other who experience coldness, I seem to be more sensitive to heat and experience hot flashes often yet my hands can remain cold as I experience this sweating. For the last few years, I have felt my face looks "sickly". If I would ask others, they might not notice. But for me personally, I feel something is different. My skin seems aged and sallow at times despite the fact that I am a health person, take vitamins, and my family doesn't age quickly. Other days, my face seems great. It's like I never know what tomorrow will bring in terms of it. But sometimes my face just looks lifeless. Even my eyes which are brown, just seem empty and hollow. I have gained dark circles under my eyes that do not change regardless of diet or sleep. I hate looking in the mirror at times and seeing dry skin or wrinkles before I am even thirty. I looked more into this and i have read that improper nutrient absorption from having something like anemia can cause sallow skin and other effects. If i am anemic, do you think when i begin treatment of iron supplements and all, my youthful glowing skin will return? I used to get compliments on my skin and it's glow all the time. Now it seems washed out and lifeless, despite having even better care for it these days. I want my energy back. I am a little confused as to why i would still be experiencing all this when I now have weakened periods due to the birth control. But I guess the anemia is still present even on a regular day.
I'm 15 and i don't know if it because of quarantining and having nothing to do, but i sleep a lot. Now watching this video seeing craving ice is a sign, I'm definitely going to have to go to the doctor and check
I stopped myself from eating ice (yeah, eating) for 3 days, I myself don't know HOW!😨😨😵 I should have not watched this video.... where's my ice???......
Another side effect to watch out for with IV iron, is that if it extravasates, it will permanently discolour the tissue/skin, so I'm always cautious about the IV access line (its not looking dodgy, etc) before I give IV iron.
I actually feel irritated and tired this past few weeks, and what i think is i am anemic. Also i feel like im stress and anxiety is attacking me. Idk im not sure if these were my situation since i haven't gone to the doctor yet. But im hoping to get better, i hate it.
Me not eating enough, nor eating foods that contain iron, coupled with heavy periods and gluten sensitivity is what does me in. When I'm good with my calorie nutrition intake I'm fine. But I when I slip ugh I get anxiety, fast heartrate, dizziness, and when it's bad I get pale randomly, had blue nails, and eventually started blacking out. I got a fitness food tracker and discovered I barely get the correct daily iron intake alone with other nutrients.
I am so sorry to hear that! Glad to know that you’re on the right track! I wish you the best! If you have any medical questions, please see a good doctor! Good luck 🍀
Thank you so much for your kind words...I wish you all the best...Please subscribe because I have “leukemia and lymphoma” videos coming very soon...Thanks again!
Medicosis Perfectionalis well it’s my own theory, when you go into cold water, then your heart rate will generally slow and constrict blood vessels with it. With iron-deficiency anemia, you usually get fatigue, which means your body can’t produce enough oxygen haemoglobin because of the low iron, obviously. So would eating ice cause all the blood to rush to the brain, therefore stimulating muscles? I don’t know, but the theory has always helped me cope with my anemia better, and the fact that I crave ice.
I used to eat a lot of meat and still couldn't get enough iron, but since I've been vegan my iron has gotten better somehow? Don't get it but I feel better.
If you've got iron issues, even if you're okay right now I strongly suggest getting away from veganism. It kickstarted hypothyroidism and anemia for so severe I almost had to be hospitalized. I've been eating meat again and feel better but my body is still recovering from the vitamin deficiency. It made me so, so sick. Please keep in close contact with your doctor and get your blood checked regularly. Veganism has only been popular for 9-10 years and pretty much everyone I've known that was vegan had to stop because of serious health issues like me or started having severe mental health issues. I really wanted it to work for me but 4 years of veganism really messed my body up
@@treehugger9070 yeah you haven't been in that long. I felt fantastic the first year I was vegan. I did. But as time goes on, your body will start to try to compensate for the nutrients you aren't eating anymore. Your HEME-iron, especially. You'll start feeling sluggish, depressed, almost like you're going to faint. Your skin will look dry, your hair will get brittle. Your nails too. You have a reserve in your body of certain nutrients from when you were a meat eater, and it will eventually depleat and this is when you will start to crash from this. It will happen, I wanted this diet to work for me so much but it made me ten times sicker than I ever thought imaginable. I've lost a lot of hair, I had serious anemia issues that were only made better by going back to meat. It's a nice thought to live plant based and be healthy and happy, in no way do I make this an attack - this is a warning from someone who did this for 4 years and it sucked the life out of me and I'm still recovering from it. You'll feel great and have fine blood work for a while but the thing about being veganism is, you have to supplement for the rest of your life this way. And you do not absorb supplement nutrients the same way you absorb nutrients in food. Not at all. Up until recently I had been relying on plant based iron supplements, because I still didn't want to go back to red meat. I had to, because anemia almost put me in the hospital. I almost had to quit my job because there were days I could barely get out of bed. Please do your research, and the moment you start feeling unhealthy please consider another path. I truly believe if I hadn't stopped eating this way it would have put me in the hospital or eventually killed me. It made me that weak and deficient. And I also did it "the right way" and ate as much unprocessed vegan food as possible. Still, it put me under...so much so that I feel bad for ever recommending it to anyone years ago
Indigo Girl Veganism isn’t a diet lol, it’s for animal rights and environment to me. I have depression from genetics in the first place, and my sleep apnea makes me sluggish.... so what difference could it make lol.. but if you do veganism right (which I am) you will get all the nutrients you need. I had my blood checked recently and my doctor is seeing increases in my deficiencies. And on top of the amount of spinach and mushrooms and greens and beans I eat. I do take iron pills just in case I need something to lean on. But again when I did eat meat my iron was a lot lower then what it is now ....
Because of my adhd meds I went many weeks without eating properly and that caused a huge iron deficiency and other vitamin deficiencies and whenever I stood up I would almost faint and i finally got some iron supplements and it cleared it within a few days
I've been craving the feeling of being in a cold snowy forest, as well as the cold, smoky air in winter... When I see powder on TV, flour etc. I also get cravings to eat or smell it... And don't get me started with the smell of cleaning products, I'm addicted 😂... So odd. I just got some blood work done and have quite severe Iron deficiency anemia...
I love the video. Whole series actually. You're cool. What's your source of knowledge? :D I am after heme-onc rotation and yet still learn a lot from your videos!
I am anemic. I have been receiving iron infusions. I notice I'm feeling short of oxygen. I get to point I can't walk 1 to 200 feet. Then I'm out of breath. Any insight?
Great video! I switched the type of iron I was taking and am finally feeling better! Ferritin was at 18 and hemoglobin at 11. We will see what my results are in 6 weeks!
I have all the symptoms sadly 😪😪😪 My ears both suffering with noises so now I know it's part of Anaemia symptoms. Also have stress. Insomnia Cramp in legs Sometimes pale skin Weakened body,feel fatigue ,rapid heart beat,etc I can add more but its midnight now.I taken sleeping tablet to help me for sleep. But since I began plant base diet and only consume fish I feel better
Rikki 1996:: I'm going thru all those symptoms you mentioned too but question Do you ever get sick to your stomach and feel like your gonna pass out when you exert yourself just a little bit?? Like for example you do a task you've done a million times but this time it wears you out to the point of exhaustion?? And if you don't sit down right away you feel like your gonna pass out?? Hope your feeling better.
Today i realized something . Can somebody help me? I can't sleep😢whenever i tried to sleep, my eyes are closed but my brain couldn't stop thinking. Wallah it hurts me alot 😭😔what can i do? It's been 1 month

Once I was jumping down the stairs straight after sitting down and then I remember crashing into my friend at the bottom but not falling. Now I just have to have iron tablets and lots of green veg so I’m getting better. OMG didn’t know the leg thing was related I thought I was just very figity
Sorry for boring you with unneeded info T-T
XxGacha Is LifexX how old are you and did you feel agitated all the time?
Universe When this happened I was I think 11, I’ve always been agitated😅 and as the nosebleeds became more stronger and came more often I could always tell when they were going to happen.
What type of Iron pills do you take and what sort of green juices do you consume? How often? I have been diagnosed with anemia and it has been difficult to improve.
MC Mc I took blood test but i didn’t have anemia I had low iron but it’s almost the same and I feel terrible I’m just drinking salary juice it helps a little
@@Gigi-se6de what is ur platelet count???
Am I the only one who cracked up when he said "Craving ice, why? I don't know" 😂😂 LOVE YOUR VIDEOS BEEN USING IT TO UNDERSTAND MY HEMATOLOGY CLASSES 💖
😂😂
Have you hear about men eating Needles or a woman eating her own hair. Thats PICA its a medical disorder associated by FE defeciency. PICA is not something you laugh about.
Hey im using his videos to get a headstart on my heme class as well, i start class in two weeks. What are you in school for and what other tools did you use to help?
Iam anemic and I'm always exchasted and I eat ice everyday now matter how cold . I tried l quitting but it's not easy I crave it.
He’s funny AF🤣🥰
The ice makes me feel like I’m alive it wakes up my brain and I’m able to function it honestly tastes like the best thing I’ve ever had not to mention it soothes the tongue swelling 😩
I am a anemic girl and used tired after doing a little work then I tried Hemoplan syrup for 2 months now am totally fine.
Where can I get that?
no doubt u'r the best teacher. thank u soo much for integrating every single thing in one short video
Thank you so much!
I love ice. I haven’t watched the vid yet but I had to get that off my chest
I crave ice, cornstarch, and baby powder 😭
A 4-month-old child was anemic. His hemoglobin was 6.5 gm/dL with a hematocrit of 22.4% following a treatment or oral and parenteral iron. His MCV was 64 fL with a MCHC of 29.0%. WBC and PLT counts were normal. Differential showed a slight increase in monocytes (15%). RBC morphology was described as dimorphic (Hypo/Micro and N/N) with polychromasia and pappenheimer bodies present. Serum iron was increased and TIBC decreased. What are the key pieces of information presented in the case study? Hypo/Micro and N/N, with polychromasia and pappenheimer bodies present.
1. What additional testing should be performed? Genetic test
1. Given the age, do you suspect a primary or secondary condition? Why? r.
1. Assuming it is primary, how would it be classified?
hemoglobin electrophoresis to rule out thalassemia
The coolest channel ever with med topics
I’m medical student and at the same time I’m a patient who is suffering from Iron Deficiency Anemia. I do suggest all who have a PICA syndrome to go to Hematologist, because I had this syndrome which means I reallly wanted to eat chalk and clay, some patients’ organism demands ice or something “uneatable”, mine was chalk. I’m on the treatment and taking some medication. And as a future doctor I looked for extra information about IDA. I’m happy for that I found amazing information from this channel. Thank You Mr. it was helpful 👍🏻
I appreciate you!
I wish you speedy recovery!
Going to the doctor tomorrow for this and more... wish me luck...
Good luck 🍀
I still have to visit a clinic for a CBC test but I am almost 100% sure that I have IDA because I've been suffering from prolonged menstrual bleeding since December 2021, it last from 2 weeks to more than a month. I was prescribed a medicine for anemia and Vit C and took them for one month. Just last month, I started feeling shortness of breath just by taking the stairs and it never happened before even during hiking. I am also losing a lot of hair for the last few months. Then a few weeks ago, I just started munching on raw rice like I was eating some chips! I am actually eating raw rice as of writing this comment. I couldn't stop!
Kale contains a lot of iron and I see its positive effects more than taking prescribed iron pills from the doctor. KALE IS AMAZING FOR IRON DEFICIENCY.
What’s the evidence?
Do you have a link to this study?
Also y'all have to take iron with vitamin c to make iron absorbed better.
Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷
Yes
Thank you so much .....I've passed my board exam🙏
Excellent 👏
Sounds way better in 1.5x speed. Good job though!
Pica is different to Pagophagia. Pica can be a craving to any non-nutritional substance like paper, detergent, chalk, etc. due to deficiencies. Pagophagia is a craving to ice.
Thank you so much for this video. I have just been diagnosed with anemia of unknown origin. My ferritin level is six, hemoglobin 10.9 hemocrit 32 . I have an appointment with a gastroenterologist in a week. I am craving ice like crazy!
Kathy Bennett weird I’ve been diagnosed with animea for abt 4-5 months now and I have been wanting dirt...is that normal
Light Skinned Yes look up the term Pica on Google! That is very normal for anemia. Sending you very best wishes!
Hey, I hope you're doing better now. Could I ask you if you experienced headaches due to iron deficiency? Because my ferritin level was 14 and I used to get strong headaches, yet I'm not really sure if that was what caused them since it's borderline deficiency.
Yes- I had headaches! Sorry I am just now seeing this.
Thank you so much...its was simply well explained with a lot of details which I didn't find in my textbook, thank u for the effort best wishes
Wow...that’s great to hear...thank you for watching :)
"Why do they crave ice, I don't know" 😂😂 You're soo funny and so so awesome ! I hope you know that. And man, first time in 4 years of medical school I fully understood anemia and the concept behind it, all these years I used to mug the indices. Thank you so so much ❤💯💯
My pleasure 😇
Thanks for your lecture I learned a lot as a medical student
Thank you 🙏
Thanks for the video, i would just like to comment that i was anemic for years, most of my life (22 years), exhausted all the time, I went to the doctor and he insisted i increase my meat intake specifically beef, which only made it worse. After travelling to India at age 23 and meeting many people from all over the world, I realised this is old incorrect science. Unfortunately people are still taught this on nutrition degrees.
I went vegan and have been vegan or plant based (however you want to label) it for 5 years now, I’m now 28, and now after a recent blood test I am no longer anaemic, have unlimited energy, my doctors actually said i have incredible blood (not my words) it was super dark and purple which is what you want, not a tomato sauce colour he said. My body runs of iron from plants perfectly.
According to science heme iron is more bioavailable meaning it is better absorbed, however iron is a pro oxidant which means in excess it can cause inflammation in the body, which we do not want.
According to science you have to eat many more plants compared to meat to get the ‘correct’ intake, however because non heme iron is less bioavilable it means the body can regulate the intake better, a slower absorption is ideal for the body. From experience the plant source of iron is so much richer, meaning depending on what greens you eat in actual fact you can eat a small amount of plants to get all the iron you need.
If you eat cheap spinach from a supermarket shelf that has been sitting there for days compared to foraging nettles, that’s a huge difference. Unfortunately most studies are not carried out with all the variables.
My advice would be to increase your greens, and I don’t mean just iceberg lettuce, I mean rocket, kale, nettles, dandelions, chard, sorrel, cleavers, parsley, corrianer, all dark dark leafy greens in nature. Which may be bitter, but we need that for our digestion to function optimally.
Heme iron is actually a carcinogen and we do not as humans need to consume it. Just want to share because being anemic for so long was really debilitating and now I am super happy and healthy. Also just to clarify as a ‘vegan’ you can still eat unhealthy, so i like the term plant based because my diet is pretty much plants with some legumes, nuts, seeds, fruits etc. I avoid refined sugar, simple carbohydrates like bread, white rice, processed foods etc. I eat a whole foods plants based diet, hope this helps someone. Love and sharing xx

@@Ediblegoodies2 do u have as much haur as befire
Clicked your video because of the beetroot drawing on the cover! I only recently discovered I’m iron deficient by chance from a screening blood test which came out quite a surprise because I consider myself on a relatively healthy diet with plenty of vitamin C and I have no symptoms. I do have beeturia but always thought it was a personal condition rather than a symptom. Now I know there IS an association!
Wow, this is an informative video. I am going to do blood work Tuesday finally to see if i am anemic. I was wondering your thoughts. I am 29, but since i was a teenager, I would have very bad cramping during my time of the month. I would sometimes black out due to how bad I felt during that time, and get extremely pale and vomit. Flash forward to my mid 20s and i finally decided to get on birth control strictly for making my periods better. Now that they are better, I don't feel horrible during that week like I used to. However, I do still feel constantly tired. I am very pale. I do have restless leg syndrome. Unlike many other who experience coldness, I seem to be more sensitive to heat and experience hot flashes often yet my hands can remain cold as I experience this sweating. For the last few years, I have felt my face looks "sickly". If I would ask others, they might not notice. But for me personally, I feel something is different. My skin seems aged and sallow at times despite the fact that I am a health person, take vitamins, and my family doesn't age quickly. Other days, my face seems great. It's like I never know what tomorrow will bring in terms of it. But sometimes my face just looks lifeless. Even my eyes which are brown, just seem empty and hollow.
I have gained dark circles under my eyes that do not change regardless of diet or sleep. I hate looking in the mirror at times and seeing dry skin or wrinkles before I am even thirty. I looked more into this and i have read that improper nutrient absorption from having something like anemia can cause sallow skin and other effects. If i am anemic, do you think when i begin treatment of iron supplements and all, my youthful glowing skin will return? I used to get compliments on my skin and it's glow all the time. Now it seems washed out and lifeless, despite having even better care for it these days. I want my energy back. I am a little confused as to why i would still be experiencing all this when I now have weakened periods due to the birth control. But I guess the anemia is still present even on a regular day.
Prefix An- means without; Suffix -Emia means condition of blood.
Thank you - this was a good video, you're a good teacher!
Thank you so much 😊
Ive been feeling breathless too bro
I’ve always had a craving for soil, concrete and clay...
More than wonderful and very useful videos..Thank you very much..I am from Libya🤗
My pleasure 😇
Does one also feel like throwing up when iron levels are low,as for the body feeling tired ooh im literally finding it hard even to sit up😔
Yes all the time I feel the same how r u now?
U SERIOUSLY MADE HEMATOLOGY MUCH EASIER 😌
I am glad to hear that!
You sounds anemic lol but thanks for this video 😊
like yea haha or mybe so chill idk
I think that’s fair 😄
Rhun Rhun nah,he just calm
hahaha

No matter how much I sleep, I’m tired, I also am self diagnosed with pica, I’ve been eating ice for years and started craving napkins recently
Go get checked out please omg
I was diagnosed a few months ago and I really wanted to look deeper into it so thank you for this video
Thank you very very and soooomuch for this simplified and helpful information .
The greatest intruducer.
Thanks dear 😊😊
I'm 15 and i don't know if it because of quarantining and having nothing to do, but i sleep a lot. Now watching this video seeing craving ice is a sign, I'm definitely going to have to go to the doctor and check
Take care!
Please keep me updated!
Your voice is awesome. Thanks for the video.
Thanks 🙏
If you watched the whole video you deserve a medal and you belong in a museum this voice is torture
Play it on 2X speed.
I stopped myself from eating ice (yeah, eating) for 3 days, I myself don't know HOW!😨😨😵
I should have not watched this video.... where's my ice???......
Another side effect to watch out for with IV iron, is that if it extravasates, it will permanently discolour the tissue/skin, so I'm always cautious about the IV access line (its not looking dodgy, etc) before I give IV iron.
I have multiple spots of discoloration. 😔👊
Mystic Sinner wtf I’m getting that this week is it like a full IV with a drip? Or is it just a shot? I’m kinda worried
I just bought some iron vitamins at the store. Should I be worried?
This is very true. I have discolouration on my legs.
I actually feel irritated and tired this past few weeks, and what i think is i am anemic. Also i feel like im stress and anxiety is attacking me. Idk im not sure if these were my situation since i haven't gone to the doctor yet. But im hoping to get better, i hate it.
give me update pleaseee i have the same condition as yours
Me not eating enough, nor eating foods that contain iron, coupled with heavy periods and gluten sensitivity is what does me in. When I'm good with my calorie nutrition intake I'm fine. But I when I slip ugh I get anxiety, fast heartrate, dizziness, and when it's bad I get pale randomly, had blue nails, and eventually started blacking out. I got a fitness food tracker and discovered I barely get the correct daily iron intake alone with other nutrients.
I am so sorry to hear that!
Glad to know that you’re on the right track!
I wish you the best!
If you have any medical questions, please see a good doctor!
Good luck 🍀
@@MedicosisPerfectionalis could I send you my labs. I have to schedule another appointment for my doctor to review my results😪
Thanks alot brother . You are really helping people.

8:12 Why do they crave ice? I don’t know 😂
i lost it at that point 😂😂
Because I think it stimulates the muscles and pushes the blood through our bodies quicker.
What’s the evidence?
Medicosis Perfectionalis well it’s my own theory, when you go into cold water, then your heart rate will generally slow and constrict blood vessels with it. With iron-deficiency anemia, you usually get fatigue, which means your body can’t produce enough oxygen haemoglobin because of the low iron, obviously. So would eating ice cause all the blood to rush to the brain, therefore stimulating muscles? I don’t know, but the theory has always helped me cope with my anemia better, and the fact that I crave ice.
Yo Mama
I used to eat a lot of meat and still couldn't get enough iron, but since I've been vegan my iron has gotten better somehow? Don't get it but I feel better.
Probably the increase in vitamin C and other micro nutrients.
If you've got iron issues, even if you're okay right now I strongly suggest getting away from veganism. It kickstarted hypothyroidism and anemia for so severe I almost had to be hospitalized. I've been eating meat again and feel better but my body is still recovering from the vitamin deficiency. It made me so, so sick. Please keep in close contact with your doctor and get your blood checked regularly. Veganism has only been popular for 9-10 years and pretty much everyone I've known that was vegan had to stop because of serious health issues like me or started having severe mental health issues. I really wanted it to work for me but 4 years of veganism really messed my body up
Indigo Girl no my iron has gotten better since I became a vegan. I do get my blood checked regularly , I’ve been vegan 8 months now.
@@treehugger9070 yeah you haven't been in that long. I felt fantastic the first year I was vegan. I did. But as time goes on, your body will start to try to compensate for the nutrients you aren't eating anymore. Your HEME-iron, especially. You'll start feeling sluggish, depressed, almost like you're going to faint. Your skin will look dry, your hair will get brittle. Your nails too. You have a reserve in your body of certain nutrients from when you were a meat eater, and it will eventually depleat and this is when you will start to crash from this. It will happen, I wanted this diet to work for me so much but it made me ten times sicker than I ever thought imaginable. I've lost a lot of hair, I had serious anemia issues that were only made better by going back to meat. It's a nice thought to live plant based and be healthy and happy, in no way do I make this an attack - this is a warning from someone who did this for 4 years and it sucked the life out of me and I'm still recovering from it. You'll feel great and have fine blood work for a while but the thing about being veganism is, you have to supplement for the rest of your life this way. And you do not absorb supplement nutrients the same way you absorb nutrients in food. Not at all. Up until recently I had been relying on plant based iron supplements, because I still didn't want to go back to red meat. I had to, because anemia almost put me in the hospital. I almost had to quit my job because there were days I could barely get out of bed. Please do your research, and the moment you start feeling unhealthy please consider another path. I truly believe if I hadn't stopped eating this way it would have put me in the hospital or eventually killed me. It made me that weak and deficient. And I also did it "the right way" and ate as much unprocessed vegan food as possible. Still, it put me under...so much so that I feel bad for ever recommending it to anyone years ago
Indigo Girl Veganism isn’t a diet lol, it’s for animal rights and environment to me. I have depression from genetics in the first place, and my sleep apnea makes me sluggish.... so what difference could it make lol.. but if you do veganism right (which I am) you will get all the nutrients you need. I had my blood checked recently and my doctor is seeing increases in my deficiencies.
And on top of the amount of spinach and mushrooms and greens and beans I eat. I do take iron pills just in case I need something to lean on. But again when I did eat meat my iron was a lot lower then what it is now ....
Me encantan tus videos. Estoy muy agradecida por tu ayuda 💕 Espero con ansias el módulo de cardiología 😊
Very well explained! Thank you 🙏🏽
My pleasure!
You're funny in your explanations. I like you.
Thank you, sir
Because of my adhd meds I went many weeks without eating properly and that caused a huge iron deficiency and other vitamin deficiencies and whenever I stood up I would almost faint and i finally got some iron supplements and it cleared it within a few days
I think this may be the problem I have now. I’ve slept enough but Im tired as if I havent slept at all.
I've been craving the feeling of being in a cold snowy forest, as well as the cold, smoky air in winter... When I see powder on TV, flour etc. I also get cravings to eat or smell it... And don't get me started with the smell of cleaning products, I'm addicted 😂... So odd. I just got some blood work done and have quite severe Iron deficiency anemia...
Im tired but when I try to lay down my head feels weird like am lightheaded or something plz help I'm super worried
Talk to your doctor
Eat and orange and at least 70% dark chocolate. Also organ meats and oysters and clams.
Exceptional I wish the other videos were structured with the lab results too
Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much for making such a nice video ❤️
My pleasure 😇
Thanx it was very helpful simplified way ... I am in love ❤😭with your hematology and oncology section 🤣
Amen
I was diagnosed with anemia - not enough blood in my body this help 💞😂
Thanks 🙏
Best of luck!
Thank you so much sir fro such an easy explanatory video .
I need notes of your haematology video , plz guide how can I get them .
Thank you
I love the video. Whole series actually. You're cool. What's your source of knowledge? :D I am after heme-onc rotation and yet still learn a lot from your videos!
Hey! Thanks a lot for your kind words! I use Harrison’s, Davidson’s, Goljan pathology, Pathoma and Goldman-Cecil.
Can you do a video about how to take care of it??
I am anemic. I have been receiving iron infusions. I notice I'm feeling short of oxygen. I get to point I can't walk 1 to 200 feet. Then I'm out of breath. Any insight?
No one can diagnose you online!
Please talk to your doctor!
I wish you the best!
@@MedicosisPerfectionalis already been diagnosed. Asking about side effects ppl have experienced. Experiences are not diagnostics.
Check out Sally Jack TV Mum and Joanna Nahum on RUclips, they both describe their symptoms. Very informative
I’ve had two blood transfusions in the past due to heavy periods 🙃 anaemia sucks.
Great video! I switched the type of iron I was taking and am finally feeling better! Ferritin was at 18 and hemoglobin at 11. We will see what my results are in 6 weeks!
Update already maybe?
Oh my! My ferritin is at 4🙀
Hope you feel better now!
To what did you switch? I was using some awful stuff that would always make me sick and now don't know what else to use.
Ist vedio seen great helpful u are just a good techer❤️
Thank you 🙏
Can you explain more about how the iron deficiency cause smaller rbc (microcytosis)?
The red cells are released into the bloodstream sooner so they have less time to develop so they’re smaller
Your voice gave me anemia
great video. thank you so much

WHY ARE THERE SO MANY ADS!!!!
I have all the symptoms sadly 😪😪😪
My ears both suffering with noises so now I know it's part of Anaemia symptoms.
Also have stress.
Insomnia
Cramp in legs
Sometimes pale skin
Weakened body,feel fatigue ,rapid heart beat,etc
I can add more but its midnight now.I taken sleeping tablet to help me for sleep.
But since I began plant base diet and only consume fish I feel better
Mam aap iron calcium multivitamin Omega 3 aur protien lijiye it's Very helpful for you
Rikki 1996:: I'm going thru all those symptoms you mentioned too but question Do you ever get sick to your stomach and feel like your gonna pass out when you exert yourself just a little bit?? Like for example you do a task you've done a million times but this time it wears you out to the point of exhaustion?? And if you don't sit down right away you feel like your gonna pass out??
Hope your feeling better.
