Ferrous sulphate
Can anyone help please with the best time of day to take these tablets? Or any experience with having taken them? It's all well and good to say take on an empty stomach, but they seem to cause reflux and when one is already taking PPI 's for acid reflux this is no easy task. Also advised by GP

Does fear play a role with pernicious anemia?
Hey guys, I hope this message finds you well. It's good to have a place to come that someone has some understanding of what you're going through! I messaged here before about having fear of a lot of things that I didn't have before this PA/B12 deficiency and sometimes I think of myself as a wimp because

stomach bloating
I have pain starting from stomach then it seems to travel down to lower abdomen. I am very bloated, only burping or passing wind, my pain can be released a bit. The bloating is so bad, I couldn’t even breathe. I am wondering if anyone who have similar symptoms and how to relief such painful bloating.
