Returning to work with exhaustion
I've started taking vitamins containing B12, and I also take
iron
tablets. I'm just so anxious and worried about how I'm going to manage 12 hour shifts at work. Especially as I work full time so do 33/44 a week. I've voiced my concerns to work, my partner & a couple of friends.

Pramipexole / Pregabalin
I do all the suggested Magnesium /
Iron
etc.... I am at my wits end. I have spent ages reducing the Pramipexole, but at this stage am wondering if that is my only option?

CA 125 levels and ovarian cyst
I have since got my
iron
levels back up and went for a scan in September where they found a fluid filled ovarian cyst which was 5cm. The sonography said he was pretty sure it would go. Went back 10 weeks later and it's still there and a little bigger .

Sobriety and preparing withdrawal from Pramipexole
I have started taking
iron
with c-vitamines. As I am doing a keto diet I also take electrolytes. I found something called Hyland's Restful legs that gets great comments.

Many Many thanks !!!!!
Two further complaints I didn’t mention was I ‘m a cochlear implant user as I’m severely profoundly deaf, but hear quite well with the implant, secondly and more importantly I take
iron
tablets for a kidney complaint and thi together with my Type 2 diabetes doesn’t fit the criteria for a transplant apparently

Weaning down off Pregabalin
I am on no other medications, though I take magnesium, gingko, and fish oil, and the occasional
iron
tablet.. My ferretin levels are 155 and saturated ferretin 37.

Iron Overload/Hemochromatosis?
I did a medichecks
iron
panel test results as follows:
Iron
26.4 (6.6-26 umol/L) TIBC 66 (41-77 umol/L) Trans Sat 40% (20-55) Ferritin 50 (13-150 ug/L) I was advised at the time that it probably wasn't hemochromatosis as ferritin level too low but was advised to keep my eye on it.

Should I take Irin supplements?
The results I was the most interested in were the
iron
panel. After Seaside Suzie explained the importance of optimal levels for conversion of t4 to t3 I think I need to be taking a supplement? Could I ask if my results are comprehensive enough to make that decision please?

Iron deficiency anemia and increased A1C levels
I get phlebotomies ever couple of weeks, which as expected, has caused me to be
iron
deficient and a bit anemic (HGB 11.1, Ferritin <3 ng/mL,
Iron
29, Transferrin 6%, UIBC 434, and IBC 463). I am also on 2 aspirin/day, some BP meds, and a statin. My A1C is now 6.4.

Vits tested
I’ll ask the GP for some
iron
, I’ve bought a blood test online which is more thorough. Waiting for day 3 of my period as there’s lots of hormones included, just wondered if the b12 or folate are ok?

Im guessing now that the low
iron
contributed to my fatigue and breathlessness because summer 2020 i had five phlebotomy in a row one every month (one year prior i had no fatigue and in fact i was hiking 5 miles every day) ….
