I am happy to welcome you as the newest member of Living of VWD - whether you think you’ve come to the right place or not haha!
Not sure as to what answers your hematologist will provide you with (hopefully she has already given you some concrete ones) - but I do know that anemia and iron deficiency have been mentioned a lot around here. After conducting a quick search for “iron” using the Search Icon (top right corner of the red bar) - these were the results that came up:

I hope some of the discussions in there provide some useful context. And if not, feel free to start a discussion post of your own and also to let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.
I hope you enjoy your time here!
