Ask your doctor about extra vitamins and minerals you may need:
Iron supplements (if you are anemic)
Calcium and vitamin D supplements to help keep your bones strong
Vitamin B12 to prevent anemia

I know he is on iron. Maybe his doctors will add Calcium and vit D. Does he drink milk? Some people's doctors recommend that they stop taking milk.
His mood will improve as he starts to feel better.
'Sending good thoughts and prayers.
