The article on NHS Direct is good and informative about anaemia. The one on dotpharmacy gives lots of info too.

there are a good few and I probably won't remember some of them. The main ones are:
1 iron Deficiency anaemia
2 pernicious anaemia
3 sickle cell anaemia
There are other blood illnesses related to anaemia.

1. Nutritional-- Iron, B12, B9 deficiency.
2. Haemolytic-- Increased destruction of red blood cells. e.g. thalassaemia, sickle cell anaemia, etc.
3. Anaemia of chronic disease-- Rheumatoid arthritis, chronic renal failure, etc.
4. Less precursors of blood cells in the bone marrow-- Aplastic anaemia..
5. Replacement of precursors by abnormal cells. e.g. Leukaemia.
