Guest guest Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 WEakness, fatigue, pale gums,...Please keep in mind that many of the meds used to treat RA can cause anemia. RA itself I was told can cause some anemia. There are also different kinds of anemia...not all is iron deficiency. It you do not have have enough folate that can mimic anemia...Please see you doc if you think you have anemia..blood tests can reveal some basic info and your doc can decide if you need further testing. Headaches and dizziness can be low blood pressure, dehydration or something as simple as a sinus infection. Again see your doc. There are some RA meds that can also cause headache such as enbrel. Good luck, I hope you feel better soon. Toni > > Its been a while since I have written on here. Have been reading off > and on but haven't responded to any or written any in a while.

Some of the symptoms for anemic are headaches and dizziness, so make sure your doctor checks you out.
