If you have suffered from anemia for at least 4 years now. It has gotten worse through the years you have problems sleeping and take ambien now. Any Suggestions?
I do not believe that ambien is the answer to having anemia, and sorry to say this, but if it was a doctor that recommended that to you then he/she is a bad doctor! Yes, anemia is a sleep disorder but it is also a BLOOD disorder. Therefore ambien will not treat the cause of anemia. The only thing that you can do on your own is to take iron supplements, since one of the possible causes of anemia is an iron deficiency. If that doesn't do anything for you then you should see a doctor. Don't let them prescribe you a sleeping pill! That will only treat a symptom, not the the cause of. It is extremely important that you get a blood test done so that you can find out the underlying cause of your anemia since there are several different possible causes. And the treatment for each different cause of anemia is ALSO different, which is why iron supplements may not work for you. There are some very rare, but serious possible causes as well--another important reason to have your blood tested. Sickle cell Anemia is the only type of anemia that has no cure, however you would have already known by know if sickle cell is what you have. Basically, just get a blood test!!! No sleeping pills!!!! Sorry so long, hope that helps!
