<s>[INST]My 5 year old grandson is anemic (currently on iron tablets), frequently gets chest colds since the time he was born, will run a high fever and get nosebleeds. He also has red puffiness under his eyes. He is a good weight, ~ 47 lbs, and has high energy but he is continually very pale What type of blood work would you recommend. I had to ask the doctor to do the lab work last time for anemia - for some reason she was hesitant to do so but the results were low iron. Thank you.[/INST]Hello, If your baby has very frequent cold, cough, red eyes, it could be due to allergic rhinitis. I advise you to go for allergy screening. Anemia in this age group is usually due to nutritional deficiency as iron or vitamin B12 or folic acid. Get blood test - CBC, iron profile, serum vitamins B12 level, folic acid level and review with reports, further course and treatment will depend on reports. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  </s>
