My Son is 11 months old and diagnosed with thalaesemia minor. Anyone has experience? He was fully breastfeed for 6 months and currently mixed with fm and 2 times solid. Doctor said could be inherited and he is my 3rd child. 2 of my elder kids do not have this problems. My Husband and I never test. He is on iron drop and multivitamin. Diagnosed by KKH. He was supposed to test for Lung infection during 9 months old but tested for anemia (thalaesemia) doctor said will do a through check when he is 1 year old plus for accuracy. What do you do to help the child? I am trying hard to feed him with more green vege but he refused
