Feeling poorly
I also have an
iron
panel kit which I will also do. I have been slowly increasing from 50mcgs to 75mcgs, and past 2 weeks taking 75mcgs everyday. Without the knowledge of my GP at this point.

High neutrophil countš±
My wife's last blood test showed her platelets were up at @800 And her neutrophil count at over 70, her Hgb was 116, hematocrit was 0.38 which is high for her, but as it was only three weeks since she had three units of packed red cells and a bag of
iron
, that was expected.

Starting B12 injections, how often?
I started on
iron
and folate tablets a week ago. What I'm wondering is how often should I be getting the B12 injection after the first one? (I am in Ireland). Thank you

Should I be asking for an increase in Levo?
However, I have been much more consistent with taking Vit B complex, Vit C +
iron
, Vit D+K and magnesium every day.

Does iron in hard water interfere with levodopa uptake?
Is this the same form of
iron
that interferes with levodopa? Should we bring our own water, or is high
iron
in drinking water ok? Thanks.

Symptoms suddenly taking a turn for the worse
When should I start to feel better from taking more
iron
? Is 4 weeks too optimistic? 2. What should you do once your
iron
levels reach the required amount? Continue taking the product, but, say, every 3 or 4 days instead of every 2 days?

The most common failures in relation to the treatment of RLS, from my experience:
Measuring blood
iron
levels is not sufficiently sensitive for RLS. It must be serum ferritin which is the protein that transports the
iron
around the blood.

vitamin results and advice on tweaking or changing supplements
This was when I added the folate back in and increased
iron
rich foods, donāt think thereās much wiggle room for more. What else can I do to get this to nearer to āidealā ?

Iron Panel Interpretation
My results: -

iron
issues causing my PLMD?

Confused about latest blood tests - why are FT4 and FT3 rising, but I still feel awful and I'm undiagnosed and not on any meds?
I'm not on any meds) and my
iron
(which has somehow always been excellent in the past) appears to have gone down quite a lot.

racing pulse
Iām going to start three arrows
iron
could it be related to low ferritin? Iām assuming itās going to settle as my body settles with Erfa. Iāve been on it 7/8 weeks now. Just wondered have others had this and has it settled? My resting pulse is usually 55-60.

Anyone know anything about ferritin and trans ferritin saturation levels?
How do I increase my
iron
levels if I need to, with high transferritin saturation levels? I should add that I am mostly vegetarian and take a multivitamin that has quite a low strength level of
iron
in it. Active B12 is 61pmol and folate is 18.3 ug is this ok?

starting on ndt Thyroid-S
As I understand my vit d, b12,
iron
and folate need to be optimum? In what time do you raise and retest again? Iām assuming that 1.5 was my dose and that I went too high too fast. Appreciate any insights.
