   Purpose, Prevention & Protection

   • I know chronic inflammation can keep my body from using stored iron to make red blood cells
   • I know infection, immune disease, kidney disease, cancer, or another illness may cause this anemia
   • I understand this differs from iron deficiency, although I may have both conditions
   • I share any bleeding, diet changes, new medicines, infections, or worsening chronic illness
