Am I anemic? From: N.

Reply: Alicia Lapidus M.D.: "Re: Am I anemic?" I'm 17, and I just finished my period about a week and a half ago, in case that makes a difference. I went to go donate blood yesterday, and my iron level was too low to qualify (34%, whatever that means), and the nurse just said, "Ooh, that is pretty low." I went back to try again today, and my level was at 35%. I think they got kind of worried or something, because they brought the supervisor in the ask me all these questions about the symptoms of being anemic. They said to wait a couple of days, and then try again, and if I still didn't pass, they would suggest that I "look into it." Are my levels really that serious? I think hypochondria is setting in, and I'm starting to wonder whether I do have some of those symptoms or not. Please, anyone, I'm getting kind of freaked out about his. Any ideas?
