Need eval: definitely, you will need to get further evaluation. you would need to have a GI work-up to find the source of iron deficiency, also would need to get imaging studies- CT scan chest,abd,pelvis and some other blood work to find other causes of extensive blood clots. please discuss in detail with your hem/oncologist. God bless.
