RA & Anemia
Hi all - hope you are doing well. I come here today with a question about iron deficiency anemia and rheumatoid arthritis. I have been anemic my whole life - I had PICA as a kid where I ate sand and crayons and other weird stuff because I had such a severe mineral deficiency and this wasn't detected

Maintaining ferritin level
Hi I am looking for advice regarding maintaining ferritin level. I had an iron infusion in May after 3 years of iron deficiency anaemia and my ferritin has been slowly dropping I'm guessing from heavy periods? Is there any way to maintain a good ferritin level without eating liver (I don't like the taste

Thyroid Meds and Iron Interactions:
Is 8 hours long enough in between levothyroxine and iron supplements? I take levo at 5:30am, iron at 1:30pm, and prenatals at 9:30 pm (I just started taking the iron so I wanted to be sure).

Has anybody had an iron infusion?
Hello all, I went to a very helpful and patient endocrinologist yesterday as recommended by the lovely ladies here. It was a private appointment. I am hypothyroid and I have antibodies around the 200 mark. One of the main issues I have is fatigue and I struggle to increase my ferritin levels as I cannot

Reactive Gastritis?
Hi, I went to see the gastro consultant last week following my colonoscopy and gastroscopy in august. She said all the results and biopsies where completely normal and show conclusively that I do not have any absorption issues or pernicious anaemia. I got a copy of the pathology report and had a look

Hypothyroid and aneamic but not through iron deficiency
Hi I'm hypothyroid on thyroxine and had a full blood count done and the dr said I'm slightly anaemic but not through iron so im confused . My results are B12 - 683 (170-730) so I'm thinking this is good? Serum ferritin 17 ( 10-290) this seems low to me even tho she said it's not a shortage of iron.

Newly diagnosed
I just started on Levothyroxine 25 microgrames. My ferritin was a bit low 39.6 (20-291). So I bought ferrous fumarate 210mg and plan to take on each day until retest in 6 weeks. Does this sound good? Is it safe to start this on my own without talking to my doc? The pharmacist was a bit reluctant to sell

Iron test results
My results came back "normal no action", but I wonder if supplementing may be beneficial? Serum iron level: 14umol/L (9.00-30.00 umol/L) Serum transferrin: 2.6 g/L (2.00-3.60g/L) Transferrin saturation index: 22% (15.00-45.00%) I still feel so tired all the time! Any advice would be appreciated.

Switch from Thyroid-S...?
Sorry if this question has been asked before, but I am currently reviewing my options: staying on Thyroid-S, trying any of the other Thai brands instead, or giving Erfa another chance (I do have a prescription for Erfa but don't like the critical reviews going back a couple of years). It's also possible

Some help needed please.
I have been posting on the thyroid thread but it has been suggested that I post here. I paid for a private blood test from Blue Horizon and it showed the following:- This is a hyperthyroid result (overactive thyroid gland). The high free thyroxine level suggests that there is some issue with your thyroid
