Overview
The hallmark of sideroblastic anemia is fatigue, decreased exercise tolerance, and dizziness. A positive history of toxin or drug exposure, family history of unexplained anemia, and alcoholism is suggestive of sideroblastic anemia. The most common symptoms of sideroblastic anemia include malaise, irritability, fatigue, dyspnea on exertion, and palpitations. Less common symptoms are diarrhea, polyuria, deafness, blindness, and abdominal pain.
History and Symptoms
