In my case it is "chronic anaemia" where "chronic" means "lasting for a long time". It can also be called "pernicious anaemia". The problem occurs when the body cannot make the B12 vitamin from the food which has been digested, so the alternative is to have a B12 injection every 3 months. One effect of lack of B12 is that you become very tired much more easily.
