Taking too much Iron can kill you. If you already had a blood test, the results will be back soon. If your deficiency is great enough the Doc will prescribe you some heavy duty Iron Supplements. However, if it is simply a mild case of Anemia, you can go to the drug store and get some OTC iron pills. I would wait until your Doc gets back to you though.

You CAN buy them at the pharmacy. I have. Its not a BAD idea but make sure you read the instuctions on how much too take at a time and how many times a day. Hope this helps answer your questions and I hope you start feeling better!

All drug stores have them.
Tip: taking an iron pill during your monthly munches (when you crave salt) will curb the munches since iron is about to leave you... you have to replenish it.
Italy: ouch... I know about how hard it is to get simple medicines there. Check with your local drug store to find out. My girlfriend had to bring cough medicine to her family when she went to visit. Just ASK how to get it. If you can.. if you have to... buy it online from a reputable vendor.
