Title: Hey Everybody...
Post by: dahlia on March 12, 2008, 11:21:08 PM

I'm 35 years old and just found out I have a thallasemia trait. 

I'm so happy to have found this site because I'm just learning about this now.

My doctor had always led me to believe I suffered from iron deficiency anemia.

Recently, I learned this was not the case because I was feeling extremely fatigued and suffering from dizzy spells and lightheadedness which led to more tests.


I have yet to find out if all of my symptoms were related to thallasemia, but I am hoping to find some answers.

Thanks for offering a soft spot to land.
