Symptom 9. Chest Pain
Chest pain is another potential symptom of sideroblastic anemia, though it is less common than some of the other symptoms discussed in this article. This pain can occur as the heart struggles to pump blood and oxygen throughout the body, leading to discomfort in the chest area.
Chest pain associated with sideroblastic anemia can vary in intensity and duration, and may be mistaken for other medical conditions, such as heartburn or angina. It is essential to seek immediate medical attention if you experience chest pain, as it may indicate a more serious heart-related issue that requires urgent care. (9)
