Can anyone tell me the dangers of drinking with anemia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be significant: Drinking alcohol in large amounts can depress the ability of the bone marrow to make blood cells. Alcohol can also deplete the body of vitamins essential to making blood cells (like b12). So, coupling alcohol consumption with anemia may compound the problem. Most importantly, talk to your doctor about your risk.
