Patient's question:
Hello, I have pernicious anemia. I usually suffer from anemia, loss of appetite, and may also experience nausea and vomiting again. Hello, is there a way to cure pernicious anemia currently?Doctor's answer:
Megaloblastic anemia is mostly caused by nutritional anemia. In adults, long-term vegetarianism or picky eating can lead to a deficiency of vitamin B12, which may result in megaloblastic anemia. In infants, if breastfeeding is prolonged without complementary feeding, it can also lead to a deficiency of folic acid or vitamin B12, causing megaloblastic anemia. Therefore, megaloblastic anemia can be corrected by supplementing with vitamin B12 or folic acid, along with vitamin C. Pay attention that correcting picky eating habits can help prevent megaloblastic anemia.
