Am I sick?

Hello, I'm a 20 year old woman and I need to know what's going on with me.
I tend to faint a lot, usually 3 to 4 times a day. There was a time where I was fainting around 10 times a day, it got worst. Now it calmed down a little. I also tend to feel weak and my body shakes. When this happens I can't even walk or talk because I feel too weak. Crying is the only thing that I seem to do.
I get nauseas too. My period is very irregular, for a time I thought I was pregnant, after two months of no period and experiencing those faints.
I've always suffered from anemia since I was a little girl. Every time I wanted to donate blood they would tell me that my iron is low. I tried pills, and the proper food to get my iron up but nothing worked.
Could it be my anemia or is it my pressure? both? neither?
I really don't know...Please, help me.
Thank you
