Low iron???
My wife's Hgb is often low, though can pickup a little after a
ferinject
IV. Her hematologist would prescribe
ferinject
when her ferritin was lower than 15, so she is always on the low side of normal. A recent trip to Christie's and blood tests gave this result above.

Ferinject
infusion is required.

Pegasys for MF transitioning from hydroxycarbamide
The hematologist was talking about introducing pegasys interferon injections, after her 3 bags of red cells and a
ferinject
. She is worried about losing her head of hair, as it's a bit thinner than it was, and she doesn't want to lose it.

Does anyone have any direct experience of Targinact?
My iron/ferritin/saturation levels are all being checked with a view to a
Ferinject
infusion, and my psychiatrist is kind, caring and knowledgeable, so I feel I'm in good hands. But I'm still terrified and wonder how much Targinact I'll need to take to get the RLS under control.

Ferinject to correct iron deficiency and strange clicking in throat when swollowing
So an internist decided to give me
ferinject
1000 to correct it. I had 30 minutes of iron infusion and I was fine. Then after couple of days my throat was swollen and I start to have strange sensations. It's like something there that pushing my throat to make that noise.

Ferinject - iron infusion
However, I've had little success with oral iron and my ferritin is still at six so, on Monday I had my first ever iron infusion of 1000mg of
Ferinject
. I was really anxious for this procedure but it all went very smoothly.

Doctor appointment on Thursday
In-between this time I've had an iron infusion (
ferinject
) my level was 6 (15-200). I'd been on iron tabs for years but not making a difference.
