Just thought I'd update u all on my increasing ferratin levels.

Thankyou Johnevens7 ,you were right, haemochromatosis is exactly what I've got. The links you sent me were very useful. Not life threatening, just need to have weekly bloods removed then gradually over time that will go to 6/12 months to its level. This ill have to have done for the rest of my life. My son also needs to be tested, but the likely hood of him having it, is slim, unless his dad has it. I also have to inform my sister incase she has it. I just need to avoid things containing iron other than that no need to change my diet.

Debbs. Xx
