Anagrelide in UK and in the USA😱
More recently, and only since her Anagrelide has been reduced from 21 a week to 14 a week she has not had the big bleeds, but has been told she is losing blood from somewhere, hence the regular RBC transfusions and
iron
infusions. She easily drops around 2 points a week of her Hgb.

best anesthesia for knee replacement surgery ?
Apparently I am one of the lucky ones for whom only daily
iron
supplementation eventually worked to rid my body of this dreadful condition. Or, was my RLS possibly simply triggered by anesthesia?

Does anyone have any direct experience of Targinact?
My
iron
/ferritin/saturation levels are all being checked with a view to a Ferinject infusion, and my psychiatrist is kind, caring and knowledgeable, so I feel I'm in good hands. But I'm still terrified and wonder how much Targinact I'll need to take to get the RLS under control.

Pregabalin side effect – mental health
But, on the plus side: taking the Pregabalin for several months gave me some relief while the
iron
tablets took effect, which has definitely improved (if not fully resolved) things.

Hi forum friends I went to my gp Friday to see what help I might get re my thyroid now and also if I might see a haematologist re high serum
iron
but low ferritin (28 …5-204) thus can’t take three arrows.

My anxiety is stopping me from doing something that will help me. How do I power on through this?
I have chronically low
iron
, my Dr has prescribed a hormonal pill and an
iron
transfusion. Two things that terrify me for different reasons. I want to be able to go with the flow, but I can’t. I’ve asked about alternatives, this is my only option left. I’ve used my alternatives already.

Escape from Augmentation
I also take
iron
bisglycinate with orange juice (0.48mg) every evening at 8pm. I have with my doctor's support temporarily stopped atorvastatin and permanently stopped omeprazole. I intend to ask the GP to change me onto buprenorphine tablets instead of patches.

Confounded by two different results for MMA test. One negative, one positive
He’s unaware of it but it disturbs my sleep and I imagine his too because he wakes unrefreshed and falls asleep on the sofa in the evenings Breathlessness, which has improved since increasing
iron
supplements Lacking in motivation and energy The last two could be attributed to his very low ferritin

Gp reluctant to refer daughter to Endocrinologist
She has been put on
iron
tablets which haven’t helped much. Her Gp has referred her for CBT because of her anxiety and stress. She is anxious and stressed because of not being listened too. Considering she is hypothyroid she cannot put weight on which I thought was strange.
