I'm anemic, & I didn't even notice the symptoms because I would eat as healthy as possible. But various people would tell me I looked super pale ( Im brown complexion) & looked as if I hadn't slept in weeks.

I'm anemic and had no idea. 0 symptoms for me so I was very surprised when my Dr told me I am anemic

Zero energy. Being really pale all the time also I noticed. I was very anemic before my dr put me on iron pills. Also wanting to eat ice is a sign of low iron too.

I was high risk anemic. I would pass out at times, light headed, arms and face would go numb, I had zero energy, I would see black spots, and I know this one sounds silly but I honestly felt like a bobble head!

Yeah tiredness. I found being on my feet for long periods left me feeling very light headed and almost faint like.
