Although the GP tells me my iron levels are OK ( he bases this on my not being anaemic) I take Spatone every day - this is water from Snowdonia which is naturally rich in iron.
My doctor put me on iron tablets even though my ferritin level looked a healthy 69 -and it has helped.
The neurologist put me on ferrous gluconate 65 mg of elemental iron equivalent to 325 mg of ferrous gluconate 3 x daily with vit c for absorption. Ferrous gluconate is not supposed to upset your stomach.
