Anemia: Anemia can be mild, moderate and severe depending upon the hemoglobin or hematocrit measure! as severity of anemia increases, it is proportional to the fatigue one experiences! usually anemia as a result of blood loss or hemolytic anemia or B12 deficiency causes more fatigue. Other causes such as anemia of chronic disease is mild and relatively asymptomatic or compensated.
