Actually, anemia is not a disease per se: It is a symptom of quite a few diseases.

[Tilly2]

Except when it's pernicious

[stuey]

Tilly, that also is a symptom of a deeper (pardon the pun) underlying cause; however, you're somewhat correct in that it is more of a "disease" than some of the many other anemias. I guess, like in a lot of things, there is a lot of subjectivity involved in the descriptions. It would be interesting to see what Sqad has to say about it.

[stuey]

That should be "definitions", not "descriptions".

[PeelerPal]

I thought pernicious was a 16th century astronomer so I am done!

[Quizproquo]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

[stuey]

PeelerPal, you're thinking of Copernicus Pernicious.

If my memory serves me, the woman answering the anaemia question got the answer wrong by giving the answer as 'iron' Doh!
