Hi, my name is XXXXX. i am anemic . And have been off of my iron pills for over 2 weeks started back today. My head has been pounding me for the last week or so in the back of my head, and often wake up with like a crook type feeling and has times when I cannot hold my head down for a long period of time. Only for seconds at a time what is this. And is it due as a symptom of anemia?

### output:

Hello, What was your hemoglobin level when you started the iron pills. Cerebral hypoxia due low oxygen penetration into the brain as a result of anemia. You could be having the headache not as a result of anemia but as a result of another illness. Antimigraine medication will be of use here (acetaminophen, ibuprofen etc.) to alleviate the headache. For the anemia, the treatment/cure will depend on the cause of it i.e. iron deficiency, vitamin B deficiency, folic acid deficiency, hemorrhage/bleeding, renal failure, septicemia, cardiac diseases, HIV infection, liver diseases etc. Your doctor needs to identify the cause of the anemia and treat/cure, then you will stop shorting blood (anemic) and with the associated supplementation of iron pills or blood transfusion depending on the degree of anemia, you will recover fast enough. So I will suggest you head to your doctor right away for a complete blood work to identify infection, liver and kidney functions/infection, malaria etc. If there is a notion of trauma or hemorrhage the doctor will do tests depending on your carefully taken medical history. Hope this helps
