It is not the anemia. Go see your doctor because it could be lung or heart problems. Praying you feel better soon. Please keep us informed.

I get a lot of classic heaviness right in middle of chest, many would think it might be heart attack, but mine is from anxiety, and or heartburn...until you know your body's symptoms, you should probably get hold of your doctor, take care hun(((HUGS)))

Yes for sure chest pains r something to look into iron pill wouldn’t cause ur chest to hurt but the dizziness, nausea , could be from low iron or even low sodium I had that once make sure hydrated it’s real important try the electrolyte water propel has flavored water with electrolytes but chest pains unless ur feeling like pneumonia / Pleusey wouldnt cause chest to hurt it would prob cause lung pains / pressure any which way chest see doctor hon let us know prays 🦋🙃🌟⭐️⭐️⭐️
