HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern and from the history given here I could say that it all depends how much is the hemoglobin level and indices of red blood cell, the morphology of red blood cell is important, usually moderate kind of anemia takes three months to come around with right treatment, what type of metabolic syndrome is there that is not given here, have a nice day.
