  5. I'm really worried and could use some guidance. So, I had Jaundice last month, and during treatment, my doctor discovered I have Beta Thalassemia Minor. My hemoglobin count is typically between 7 and 9. Is this something I should be seriously concerned about? Also, I'm really into bodybuilding, so is it still okay for me to hit the gym? I heard that taking Folic Acid might help, but will using it long-term have any side effects? I'd appreciate your advice since this is all quite stressing me out.
