Hi,the last few weeks i hav been really tired ,weakness,even sometimes shortness of breath.i did a blood test and my doctor prescibe me with ferrous fumarate.i been diagnose in d past with rhematic fever too the last few weeks i feel my heart really beating like a heart race is it normal??
Hi There After going through your query I understand your concern. I would like to tell you that palpitation or rapid heart rate is the common symptoms of iron deficiency anemia for which you were prescribed with Ferrous Fumarate. But you are prone to develop Rheumatic Heart Disease as in the past you were diagnosed with Rheumatic fever. Kindly get an ECG and Electrocardiography done to evaluate any underlying heart disease. Hope to have been helpful. Kind Regards
