8 week bloodtest
Hi all, I've been on a reduced levothyroxine dose of 125mcg for the last 8 weeks and i stopped taking the
iron
tablets as my stomach was too painful, so for the past 7 weeks i've been using an
iron
patch.

PV and loss of hair?
My hematocrit is 37% but I also have very low
iron
right now (which is the intention). Since a few months i lose a lot of hear. Does anyone recognize this? Is PV to blame? Could the lack of
iron
be the cause? I look forward to hear from you and wish you all the best!

High neutrophil count😱
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.

I am looking to have blood tests for my diabetes as a matter of course and I plan at that time to have
iron
and ferritin levels checked also. I'll update again in due course.

Iron levels during pregnancy
At my 31 weeks appointment I was told I should have been contacted as my
iron
levels were low and put on
iron
tablets. I'm now 35 weeks and they're still under 100. I'm going to have an
iron
drip today.

Can anyone offer some help regarding my Ferritin levels for my RLS please.
and sister had/ have haemochromatosis, so I’m a bit reluctant to take
iron
tablets and some years ago, after taking
iron
tablets, my GP said to stop as my
iron
levels were too high.

Iron, estrogen & RLS
I think there is some correlation between high estrogen and high
iron
. My serum
iron
level is fairly high (155), while my ferritin is fairly low (51). Because of my high
iron
, my
iron
saturation is faily high (46%).

Iron Deficiency
Are many people diagnosed with PV
Iron
deficient at the time of diagnosis? I’ve read on the internet that almost everyone with PV is
iron
deficient at time of diagnosis (hence the low ferritin) and that phlebotomy makes the
iron
deficiency worse.

Timing of NDT doses
Most of the foods I eat seem to have calcium,
iron
or magnesium, and I don't want to fill up with junk like gluten free rice bread (I am on a low oxalate diet).
