Answer 1

Please don't go donate blood. You need to see your doctor asap

You can either be anemic or you might have a blood clotting problem. Neither of these should be self diagnosed or self treated.

Look at the color of your nail beds. Are they nice and pink as they should be? Take your finger and check your lower eye lid, is it nice and pink or very pale?

When you feel light headed you need to be having between meals healthy snacks.
For instance some celery with peanut butter in it. Put it in a plastic bag and eat it between classes.

The most important thing you need to do is get yourself to a doctor

Answer 2

pull down the bottom of your eye lid and if its pretty damn pale, then ur probably are. u have all the symptoms. go to the clinic and just take the finger prick test. they can tell if ur anemic that way. if u dont wanna take meds..try puting more iron in your diet and see if you feel better. iron always helps with anemia. but be careful cause i can make ur poop turn black, and it can make u constipated. good luck! :)
