A member asked:
For what reasons might fatigue be a common symptom for all of the anemias?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good question: Because hemoglobin that coats red blood cells delivers oxygen to all our tissues, including (of course) the brain. Fatigue is a symptom of poor cellular energy production. Please see my blog "oxygen the spark of life".
