Low iron and b12. im taking all supplements but im still sleeping all the time. how long is this excessive sleepiness going to last?! i hate it!

May be unrelated: Your sleepiness may be unrelated to your iron and B12 status. Try exercising. Start with a low impact exercise like walking and gradually increase the time and intensity, as tolerated.
