Overview
Anaemia, or lack of red blood cells, is common, and can be a symptom of a serious underlying disorder. It has a number of causes, and this book stresses that it's vital to find and treat these, rather than simply prescribing iron tablets. Iron tablets do have their place in treatment, but this is rarely the full answer and priority must be given to discovering the underlying cause.
Topics include: Types of anaemia Tests and diagnosis Anaemia in menstruation and pregnancy Anaemia due to other blood loss, eg pernicious anaemia, coeliac disease, inflammatory bowel disease and tumours The controversial question of nutritional anaemia The anaemias of old age Sickle cell anaemia and thalassaemia Rare forms of the disease
