Iron infusion progress- labs
Hey all, Two weeks ago I had iron infusion of 500 Monover. It was a bumpy ride (more in my previous posts). I had tests done today if it worked and here they are: Iron = 71 (50-170) up from 39 Ferritin = 260 (range up to 200), went up from 37 Does anyone know if it's normal to have still lowish iron

My 3 Arrows Heme Iron has finally arrived! How do I dose it?
It seemed to take a long time to arrive. But it's finally here. At my last blood test my iron was low, not deficient and not low enough for a doctor to comment. But lower than I want and I struggle to keep Ferritin half decent. I've never had good Ferritin. So how do you take your 3 Arrows Heme

Late as usual: Aberfforest -- the easy way to the other side
I feel I should apologise for being out of touch for a while. Well, actually, I am not sorry, but you know how we Brits apologise for everything, even things we haven't done. I spent the last four days in hospital, returning home yesterday afternoon. I had developed severe leg pain and swelling, and

recently told I have possible heart failure
I have multiple issues: asthma, atrial fibrillation (permanent), underactive thyroid. I am on apixaban blood thinners. This last year I have had a rather bloody uti followed in May by bleeding from my colon when I lost a considerable amount of blood, so I am now deficient in iron. And am taking iron

Bubbling sensations in the rectum area and very low gurgling sounds, has anyone had the same?
I have had blood tests and a colonoscopy. Everything is fine apart from high iron levels. But I was just wondering if anyone has had the same sensations/symptoms in the subject line? Any advice or reply from someone that has had the same symptoms would be appreciated. I have also just had a FIT test

hair loss
I am low on ferritin and zinc and I am now getting vitaminB injections. I cannot absorb ferritin or zinc through my stomach (I am well medicated with thyroxine and levels remains stable). I keep asking for an iron infusion but keep getting refused because my 'numbers' are within normal range -ferritin

Rotigotine Patches
Hi from England. I've just been prescribed these patches (2mg) a few days ago by my neurologist. He's told me to stay on my 4mg Requip (Ropinerol) because of the severity of my condition. He stated that he dislikes the term RLS as it seems to downplay the condition and wrote Willis Ekbom disease which

Good news, I think. My GP (doctor) had to give a talk on a subject of his choice to all the other doctors in his Practice.He told me that he decided to give a talk on restless legs! He, of course, had learnt a lot from me & all my ups & downs & he also had to do a lot of extra research. Well, I am

First time posting here with questions
Hello, I was wondering how to tell if you need b12 injections when you take oral b12 and your serum b12 always comes out looking great? I haven't had it tested recently but past tests always come out way over the range. Anyway, I saw a post by @Marz in which she said that she takes b12 due to having
