anemia and pale?

Okay as crazy as this sounds since I started taking iron tablets last week... not only my sleep has improved but so has my complexion. I'm not nearly as pale and look like i have color (I haven't been in the sun for months) I just look so much healthier. Do I sound absolutely nuts? Or could this be a result of my iron getting much better?
