I have been diagnosed with iron deficiency anaemia. My nails are starting to split vertically and I am also getting hot flush/sweating episodes later in the day. Are these recognised symptoms. Tomorrow I am having a capsule endoscopy. I am concerned that I may have a tumour as I had a malignant melanoma 20 years ago.
Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your symptoms may be seen in iron deficiency anemia. You should check your blood count and iron status.  You should also go for ultrasound abdomen. Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
