Sudden recent darkness under eyes
I am thinking this is more likely a nutrient issue, like
iron
or B12 maybe? But haven't felt particularly fatigued so wondered if this can also be the result of CLL. Have any of you noticed this during your W&W? Thanks.

Clueless and looking for advice!
Also have been prescribed
iron
tablets in the past and struggle to absorb them- they give me unpleasant bowel issues. Have been taking 2000ug of b12 in the form of methylcobalamin which I’ve been told is perhaps not the best supplement to take.

Success with iron therapy.
About midway, I changed the
iron
source to two 25mg caps of
iron
bisglycinate and continued the 250 mg vitamin C tablet each day. The change was made to find out if the substitution of the
iron
bisglycinate would help with the constipation problem, but it didn't.

iron

Hair Loss with Acalabrutinib
According to my oncologist my
iron
is low and this is the reason for the loss of hair. Has anyone else experienced this and how did you combat it?

Hormone Help
Also been prescribed
iron
as it’s obviously low, not sure what good it’s doing if I’m still losing blood every day. I figured I’ll give myself chance to see if the break and restart helps, as I know it can take a while for your body to acclimatise.

I need some help with this
We thought it was the
iron
I was taking, but I stopped that last week. These cramps are not in my calves. They are in my feet and ankles. They start out with a dull ache and then my foot locks up and twists and the ankle looks like someone sucked all the air out of my body.

My journey to date
I was also able to get an
iron
infusion- just received the second of two parts. She prescribed hydrocodone and Tylenol for airplane travel. That didn’t work and I had two unhappy flights. I just wondered if anyone has any advice for me at this juncture? Thank you!

Advice please on latest results after dose decrease
I am taking
iron
with vit c for the low ferritin which is creeping up, but everso slowly. Zinc is also near low end of scale at 864 (800-1600) at but copper ok (i was low) so I need to address that too. Vit d is ok - 100. Any advice gratefully received. ThankYou

Blood work
Reticulocyte count is also higher than normal when a patient with
iron
deficiency anemia or megaloblastic anemia (due to vitamin B12 deficiency) is treated with supplementary
iron
or vitamin B12. My ferritin was high on my test. Could this increase in reticulocyte count be related my RLS?

Update on Weaning off of Pramipexole
Per the advice of this forum, I am also now taking an

Help sought with iron panel, please
I don't understand
iron
panels, despite trying to read up on them, and would be very grateful for help as to whether (a) it's advisable for me to take
iron
supplements to raise my ferritin (even if the latter test is accurate, it's still below optimal, I believe). (b) anything else jumps out.
