Hello,

As per your clinical history, is concerned please follow like this -
1) Do a clinical examination by your doctor and to confirm do CBC with differential.
2) Discuss with your doctor about injectable iron and vitamin B 12 which you need weekly for one month then orally.
Do follow lifestyle modifications like this-
1) Take Iron-rich foods which include beef and other meats, beans, lentils, iron-fortified cereals, dark green leafy vegetables, and dried fruit
2) Do take folic acid, which can be found in citrus fruits and juices, bananas, dark green leafy vegetables, legumes, and fortified bread, cereals, and pasta.
3) Do take Vitamin B-12 and this vitamin is found naturally in meat and dairy products.
4) Take foods containing vitamin C such as citrus fruits, melons, and berries that help increase iron absorption.
