Summary
Anemia of chronic disease (ACD) is a form of anemia that occurs in people with chronic medical conditions such as cancer, autoimmune diseases, and certain infections. ACD is caused by the body's inflammatory response to chronic illness, which can lead to iron deficiency. Symptoms of ACD include fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath.
