Anaemia?

Is it possible to have anaemia or a form of anaemia even if your blood results come back normal? I have suffered with lightheadedness and fatigue for nearly 2 years. My iron was low in pregnancy so I took some tablets but they didn't really help. Since then I've been back to the doctors a few times and they tell me my iron levels are normal. I have been a vegetarian for 24 years and hardly eat any spinach etc. Not sure if there are different forms of anaemia? Or if it doesn't show up in a blood test? Or why the tablets didn't make me feel better?

Thank you.
