How to treat anemia after chemotherapy?

Patient's question:

I have been experiencing dizziness recently, and I can't seem to eat properly either. My mental state isn't great either. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it's a blood-related issue. Could you please tell me how to treat anemia after chemotherapy?

Doctor's answer:

The side effects of chemotherapy itself include anemia. If mild to moderate anemia reoccurs, dietary measures combined with medication can be used for treatment. This includes consuming foods rich in vitamin B12, such as animal organs, apples, and spinach, along with ferrous sulfate granules for treatment. If severe anemia occurs again, it will be necessary to go to the hospital for surgical treatment as the primary approach. Alternatively, traditional Chinese medicine that replenishes qi and blood can also be taken for treatment.
