Taking Vitamin C
This might seem a daft question but I need to increase my
iron
& read I should take it with 100mg of VitC. How do I take 100mg of VitC? All the tablets are 1000mg. The average tangerine is 50mg & not what I’d choose to eat at night. Do I buy a VitC powder?

Iron levels update & advice
Looking at my other
iron
markers (which I don't fully understand) would advice be to stop all together for 8 -10 weeks and test again? Or continue taking 1 every other day .. dont want them to plummet again but is it a case of trial and error? Thank you in advance!

What other supplements do you take to support thyroid health besides vit D,
iron
, B12, Folate? These are already under control and at good levels. Selenium? Iodine? Thanks!

Iron blood tests results
Does anyone know if this blood result shows low
iron
? I got my results back and it says normal but looking online it says it’s in the lower range. I’ve added the results in photo. Thank you in advance.

GPs! Lack of knowledge.
I take Ropinirole 4mg and 210mg
iron
tablets to try and raise Ferritin. The GP keep stating that my levels are normal and there was very little she could do or suggest…her knowledge was very limited. How would you continue this conversation with her? I was in tears on the phone.

Low iron, supplementing with 3 Arrows
Hi everyone, I posted about a week ago after having
iron
studies done through the NHS, it came back that I wasn’t
iron
deficient enough to be treated by a doctor, but my levels were definitely low enough to start treatment since I’m already experiencing symptoms and don’t want to get worse…..

Optimal Ferritin: Does anyone take a maintenance dose of iron to achieve this?
Dear Forum Members, I am wondering if anyone takes a maintenance dose of
iron
to keep ferritin optimal? After reading the recommendation here for the Three Arrows supplement I am about to start taking this but would appreciate any advice you have on raising and maintaining ferritin levels.

Folate timing
I take it 30 mins to an hour after, but I’m not sure if it’s like
iron
and should be several hours apart. Many thanks for your help.

Decreasing iron levels despite taking iron
My new
iron
test shows it is now 14.5 umol/l (5.8 - 34.5) and on 4th September it was 17.7 umol/l (5.8 - 34.5). I have been taking
iron
drops every day (except for period of time before each blood test). Is this normal?

Has Anyone Had a Virtual Consultation?
Hi, has anyone had a private virtual video consultation with Dr Klein of the Cambridge
Iron
Clinic? Just wondering how it went and does it work well through this medium. Or, has anyone been referred to him through the NHS? He also works at Papworth hospital.

dose increase?
I also had an
iron
panel done at the same time and, as per the advice of some kind people on this forum, have just started taking Three Arrows
Iron
. I am also trying to up my Vit d and folate, because these have been low for quite some time.
