Affiliated tissues include kidney, skin and neutrophil, and related phenotypes are vitamin b12 deficiency and malabsorption of vitamin b12

Major Symptoms of Megaloblastic Anemia

Megaloblastic anemia is a serious blood disorder that primarily affects red blood cells. It is characterized by a rapid increase in the number of red blood cells in the blood, leading to anemia. Some of the major symptoms of megaloblastic anemia include a rapid fatigue, pale skin, shortness of breath, dizziness, and an increased heart rate to compensate for the increased blood volume.
