I assume you are already taking iron pills? If iron is not bringing up your blood count, it may be that you are not binding iron effectively, and a lab test to check your iron binding ability is possible. At that point it would be good to discuss both vitamin and diet options for maximizing your iron transport. If your doctor doesn\'t have time,try contacting your local licensed Naturopathic Doctor.

I hope this is helpful.
