Anaemia
Ok so about 4 months ago i decided to become a vegetarian and up until now everything was going great. Meat repluses me so i didnt miss it and i wasnt having any health problems. But lately i have been feeling extremely tired even exhausted sometimes and sleep makes it no better. I went to the doctor and got my bloods done and im waiting for the results. Could i be anaemic? If so is there anything to make me feel good again because i have exams soon and ive totally lost my appetite.
Thanks

My husband is a vegetarian as he is unable to tolorate anything which has had blood in it, if he eats anything that has blood in it he becomes very ill and sometimes ends up in hospital. He used to suffer with tiredness, so I gave him vitamin B12 and B6 tablets and now he is fine. Being a vegetarian you have to make sure that you take a few extra vitamins and minerals.
Good luck! x
It could be just side-effects of the stress you're under due to your exams. I know I've had it rough lately with exams one after the other, and I'm feeling really exhausted too. Once your exams are over, perhaps you'll pick up a little then?
Amara's advice re a veggie diet is really good. I know in the transitional period in becoming veggie, it's difficult to know what to eat. Try things like halloumi cheese as an alternative to meat, falafel kebabs are delicious, and you can have any curry or stir-fry with vegetables only. Oh, and Quorn's great if you're struggling or feeling lazy.
