low iron - how does this effect anxiety?

Posted by Jackster on March 8, 2003, at 23:55:24

I had a blood test a few days ago to check my blood levels of nortriptyline - and the pdoc must have had my iron tested at the same time. I got a note in the mail yesterday from my pdoc saying that I had low iron saturation and to see my family doc. Would this effect my anxiety levels? I've had blood tests before (last year on a different medication) and I'm sure my iron was tested then and must have been fine. So I'm a bit bewildered as to why I would have low iron now given that my life (and diet) is pretty much the same. I'm on Paxil and nortriptyline - would they effect iron levels at all?
Thanks
Jackie
