NAC with ferritin deficiency or PA
Just thought I’d pop in and ask my new friends if they know of any reason NAC shouldn’t be taken with
iron
tablets or B12, or whether NAC could actually have a negative effect on ferritin/B12 levels.

Weeping eye
I have been taking
iron
, b12 and vit d..as these were all pretty low. I am booked in to have bloods done in 2 weeks time. My question is why is my eye still weeping, it hasn't stopped since it first started. I also have a very slight nasal drip which he started at the same time.

My doctors won’t investigate
But my GP is not making the link to pernicious anaemia despite my diet being rich in B12 foods and me already taking
iron
and b12 supplements. Anaemia runs in my family as well as bowel cancer. I didn’t know there was a link before. I cannot get access to injections and the necessary treatment.

Anaemia caused by PRD?
I take high dose Vitamin D3,
iron
tablets and have 3 monthly Vitamin B12 injections Last year an abdominal CT scan showed a sub acute small bowel blockage and other small bowel features which I understand to be consistent with radiotherapy damage.

Dissecated liver for iron
Hello, I’ve had issues with my ferritin being low, even though I’ve been supplementing with
iron
for a while. Has anyone tried dissecated liver to get their
iron
levels up? If so, do you have one that you would recommend?

Seeing Endo This Afternoon...

iron
and vitamin B12 etc unfortunately clotted so they've sent me another test to redo it and my vitamin D was 49 (range for adequate at this lab seems to be 38-

Burning hands and feet
The good news is all bloods are within normal range including the ones in the
iron
section which are now behaving.And I see Guys in June so all of this may change. My question is any tips on living with the cold sensation , and are the neuropathic socks I've seen sold any good?

Fine tuning dose.
I've got an
iron
test and female hormones test on the way to see if that sheds some light. I'd be grateful for some input! Witchy x Edit: to add results!

Beyond frustrated
I have had to have an
iron
infusion as well. All the biopsies came back negative. The colorectal surgeon said I have some small hemorrhoids but they don’t appear to be bleeding. He said he thinks the bleeding is higher up due to the color and the clots.

Masked pv?
So we are repeating
iron
tests and B12 apparently they are a bit low ( don't have the figures) .And then are was told that the RA could be masking PV. Just have to hope the Guys appointment comes through soon, as they didn't want to do a bmb to confirm whether it was et or pv.

Thyroid meds with calcium?
I am having a very hard time fitting in calcium (two 500mg doses),
iron
, and magnesium, all of which I need and have to be taken apart from each other. I also take Pepcid (for gastritis) 30 min before dinner. This can interfere with absorption of all of the above.

INVOLVEMENT OPPORTUNITY - Haemochromatosis Research Project (UK)
This is especially a problem in men; the risks are thought to be less in women due to protection of
iron
-overload by menstrual blood loss. HH is easy to diagnose with a simple blood test and can be safely treated by the removal of blood to lower
iron
levels.
