The cause of my anemic problem most likely would happen because of vitamin or iron deficiencies. Note: different situation occurs for different individuals, please discuss with your doctor.

Doctor advised me to go for Hemoglobin Electrophoresis to check if I’m a Thalassaemia Trait (minor) carrier. He didn’t considered giving me iron tablets to stabilize my anemic problem. Because 1) The much common anemia would be the iron-deficiency anemia. As shown as the biological name, it happens because the lack of iron intake. 2) Whereby Thalassaemia is a different case, if its not removed, iron will cause damage to organs.

So, I’m like… STUCK in the middle. This could be tied for life. :(
