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

Iron levels
Had an awesome break through with a locum GP who checked my iron levels, found them to be low and gave me
Ferrous
Sulphate
. It’s worked wonders. Yay!

High platelet count due to iron deficiency anaemia maybe?
Not sure whether I should request the
ferrous
sulphate
again, OR could it be PMR flare. I have felt pretty much ok since reducing to 10mg prednisone over the past week or so, A little tired maybe on some days. Has anyone else had similar issues at all? Bloods never seem to settled down!

Magnesium
Hi just wondered if anyone has taken
ferrous
sulphate
at the same time as magnesium? I was finding magnesium helped my migraines, but now the doctors put me on
ferrous
sulphate
for anaemia and I've been told, you can't take both, as they stop each others affectiveness.

Can't increase my iron levels
Hi all, I posted in February 2023 my low iron results and started taking 200
Ferrous
Sulphate
daily then. My iron results after 3 months were Ferritin 39 (20-204) Serum iron 18.6 (4.4-27.9) Feb 23 was: serum iron 11, ferritin was 29. So not a huge improvement. But now, a year on, even worse!

Iron Level UP!
After a month the effect reduced and I wondered if this was due to using Gentle Iron so I changed back to 2 x 200mg
Ferrous
Sulphate
tablets with Vitamin C every other night. More recently I have little RLS and began sleeping through the night again.

Advice please on headaches and fatigue please
I have always had low iron, the
ferrous
sulphate
supplements doesn’t seem to be making any difference so my GP is sceptical of me needing them.

Low iron levels with a heart condition
I was put on
ferrous
sulphate
for 3 months and at the end of the 3 months I started to feel really good and finally my hair stopped falling out. Those tablets were stopped and over 2 months I started to decline again.

Hypothyroid - help please with blood test results
I have been taking Vit D 20000iu and
ferrous
sulphate
daily for years. My question is: do I need T3 added to my Levothyroxine? If so how much? Do I need to increase my Levothyroxine? I currently take 100mg Levothyroxine 5 days and 75mg for two days.

Ferritin - 16 - have been prescribed
ferrous
sulphate
off the GP. Refused iron infusion as Hb levels were normal. Vitamin D - 88 - I take Adcal D3 twice daily. I have malabsorption due to a gastric bypass about 20 years ago. Many thanks 😊

Iron Bisglycinate
Sue said the two tablets (equaling 56mg) are equivalent to 65mg elemental iron in
ferrous
sulphate
because of the higher bioavailability. I just need to be reassured that I am taking enough iron as the ferritin response seems slow

Good news re. blood tests
Red platelet count is still quite high 479 and also Serum iron level which was 47.5, so not sure whether that would indicate the need to cut the iron supplement back Now all I need to know is when I can stop taking the
ferrous
sulphate
, or if there should be a reduction in the amount per day.

Help with test results - haemochromatosis with iron deficiency?
I've been taking
ferrous
sulphate
for 6 weeks and had everything retested. I'm so confused with the results. Can anyone explain to me what this means? I've marked the abnormal or borderline results in bold.
