Ferritin levels “off the scale”

[21years]

Hi everyone, just want to say a massive thank you for the advice I was given recently regarding getting my ferritin levels checked. I did just that and my levels were off the scale apparently.

I am now taking Ferrous Sulfate 200mg tablets which hopefully will start to kick in between 4-6 weeks. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that this is the answer I have been looking for years and that I can slowly come off the Ropinirole as am suffering from augmentation.

Thank you so much!

What do you mean by "off the scale" ?

In my reckoning ,that means very high??

If so, it would not be good to be taking supplements.

I'm glad you are getting help.

Cheers.

I agree with Madlegs. Off the scale usually means much higher than safe levels. Do you mean your levels were very low?
