Please advise - symptoms worsening
Hi all, As you may remember from previous posts, I’m still borderline anaemic and so I increased my
iron
dosage as per instructions several weeks ago. My FT3 has also plummeted from a decade average of 6 to now 4.8 (range 3.1-6.8) I’m getting horrific migraines (they start with blinding auras).

Iron and sleep
Moringa is loaded with
iron
and many healthy vitamins and minerals, no other plant in the world gives more nutrients than moringa, organic black strap molasses is loaded with
iron
vitamin B and minerals, 5htp is one of my favourite products followed by Valerian and kava, take all things in moderation

It also regulates

iron
panel and a further discussion with him. He asked me to begin using a sub-lingual
iron
spray in two months to help maintain
iron
levels. He was excoriating about the use of PPIs.

cytomel and food
My synthroid bottle has a warning on it about not taking it with
iron
or magnesium and taking an hour away from food or drink. My cytomel doesn't have the same warning. Can I assume that food and drink don’t interfere with absorption with cytomel? Many thanks!

I am taking
iron
to raise my ferritin level above 19 (!) and didn’t want to take anything else such as gabapentin until I had ruled out whether low
iron
is the cause of the problem for me. Hopefully this sleep aid will help get me through this process. There has been a small study ..

CBC test anemia: high MCV, MCH, low RBC and leukocytes?
He is 66 and began taking
iron
supplements after we discovered his age 50+ vitamins have no
iron
(and his diet has been poor). But now I'm thinking that may not be the issue. I know radiation fatigue can do a number of folks, as can ADT. Are the high/low values indicative of anything?

Help interpreting iron panel
I posted my latest blood results recently & it was suggested by a forum member that prior to trying T3 I obtain a full
iron
panel. Results are posted here. Ferritin seems fine but
iron
& transferrin saturation are low.

Grandfather FIT test result of 200...
In a blood test about 3 months ago, the GP noticed his
iron
was low. They re tested it again and it was falling dramatically. He feels tired and breathless also. He did a FIT stool test and it came back as 200. This is cancer isn't it ? I am so scared for him.

Can someone please help me answer the Why questions?
I read on this forum that experts think that a major cause of RLS is lack of sufficient
iron
in the blood circulating in our brains Fine.
