Hello
My mother is CKD stage 5 without dialysis. She is getting EPO injection once in two weeks to treat anaemia. She was given iron infusion shots (500 mg)two months back. She was feeling very energetic just after two weeks. Now her haemoglobin has again came down again. Can anyone please advice me that how frequently doctors can give her IV infusion iron shots along with EPO shots. I am assuming that iron pills are not working for her therefore doctor stopped the iron pill for her. Any advice would be great for me.
