Hello,
Welcome to HCM
Since you are anaemic,there is decreased hemoglobin in your blood to carry oxygen.This will not be enough for meeting the demand of your tissues .
That is the reason why you are experiencing tiredness.
Also low blood sugar itself causes tiredness.
I would suggest you to take adequate iron supplements and eat foods that are rich in iron like green leafy vegetables,fruits,dates.
Hope you got answer to your query.
Thank you
