Makes sense now, I craved sugar like crazy when I was anemic!
My GP did a panel of bloodwork at my request and found that my iron was about a 1/2 court low!

I wasn't low enough to worry about but he just wanted to get it up a bit. I had been taking the childen's chewable my surgeon's nurse recommended and it didn't have ANY iron in it! GP said to change my vits. to a woman's daily version. I switched to Centrum Chewables for women...so far I am not low enough for a prescription.
Everything else turned out great...kidney function, electralytes (spelling), liver funtion, bloodsugar work up....all just fine.
