anemia

Does anyone here know if low ferritan can cause breathin problems/?

[gentle51]

The less iron we have in our body can cause shortness of breath and dizziness. It happened to me years ago when I was anemic. What happens is with less iron our oxygen supply is less. Climbing stairs was most difficult for me when I was anemic. So, be careful and keep in touch with your Dr. Take good care.
