Anemia

[Guest guest]

Hi - If you are not experiencing heavy bleeding, is it still

possible to become anemic from fibroids? I have heard that the

fibroids draw blood away from your uterus and other organs.

Also, how do clots fit into the blodd-loss situation? I have heard

other LOL say they have experienced heavy bleeding with clots,

and/or heavy bleeding after passing clots. Is there normally a lot

of blood in the clots themselves? Or are they more an indication

that you will experience some heavy bleeding very soon?

I'm curious b/c I have been tired and craving ice, but have not have

abnormally heavy periods or clotting. I can't determine if I am

feeling these things from stress or from the fibroids. I did,

howver, pass a huge clot during my last period, and that really

freaked me out.

Thanks!
