Iron metabolism in RLS : iron transporter ferroportin & Magnesium Malate
Role of
Iron
in Restless Legs; Earley, Ph.D. 2018And
iron
is absolutely critical for the proper functioning of dopamine-receptors.”
Iron
levels are likely fine. Problem is with
iron
metabolism. I’m no longer a proponent of dopamine agonists. I think they are akin to flogging a tired old horse.

Private Endo recommendations please
Like many of you my TSH is only checked by the NHS and always considered “in range” In recent years when I’ve visited my GP about thyroid health, bloods are done and my thyroid gets lost in translation because I have too high Vit D and high
iron
levels. I don’t take supplements for either.

RLS and iron metabolism and treating with dopamine agonists causes dopamine burnout
and therefore adequate

Since having the bloods, I've been SI B12 Hydroxy for 4 weeks every other day, along with supplementing 40mg gentle

vitamins etc and thyroid function
My son is 20 and has just had his TSH come in at 4.5 ( above range with medichecks)… I’m so reluctant to think he may need treatment for thyroid now as I feel sorry for him I guess and am trying to understand whether optimum levels of vits/
iron
etc could improve this score and make his TSH come down

concentrations."

Hello and any advice for withdrawal?
After 14 years in clinic with Professor Chaudhuri, told at every 6m appointment there have been no breakthroughs or new developments, have learned about
iron
infusion. I have requested to switch to a different clinic that supports this treatment.

Low ferritin
I have just had an
iron
profile done by my doctor and my serum ferritin has come back at 32 (30-148). She has said no further action is required as within lab range, but this is obviously very low. Can anyone recommend a good supplement please as I am feeling a bit tired and washed out?

New blood tests - advice welcome
I've struggled with the ferrous fumarate and would like to try another
iron
supplement that doesn't cause me stomach issues - is 3 Arrows Heme a good one to try? The search function here is tricky but I think some are finding this helpful?

Update on my post Confused
Still nothing to say what is causing the anemia ( unless they take my own opinion of anemia of a chronic disease) He suggested a med for the anemia since my body doesn’t absorb
iron
well but I can’t recall the name . Anyone else have
iron
infusions before? My daughter has been suggesting it.
