Confusion
At the moment I am taking Pregabalin, magnesium and ferrous sulphate. I know that some time needs to be left between these things but am confused as to how long. I take the Pregabalin around 8 o/clock. Should I be taking the ferrous sulphate in the morning as I think that's what the doctor said

Any alternative for ferrous fumarate tablet??
Hi everyone , my GP recommended me to use ferrous fumarate 210mg by mercury pharma tablet twice a day for one month but I'm getting constipated, can someone suggest alternative for ferrous fumarate OTC medicine.

Help interpreting results & likelihood of diagnosis if I saw a private practitioner.
Good afternoon, I’m at my wit’s end and would very much appreciate help interpreting recent blood tests and symptoms. I previously posted a few weeks back with details of private tests carried out with Monitor my Health on 24/1/23. They were as follows: TSH 4.74 mu/L (0.27 - 4.2) FT4 13.9 pmol/

Ferrous Fumarate
I have just had blood tests done. I was found to be low in iron so the GP gave me ferrous fumarate to take for a month. I am on Levothyroxine (one day 75, next 100) I have just started taking escitalopram 10mg for the most awful anxiety and depression. But my anxiety is still really bad I’ve read ferrousfumarate

First blood test in over a year and not feeling good
Hello,I haven't actually posted to the forum in a long time - and I am rather ashamed to say I also haven't had a blood test in a long time, either. My GP surgery haven't called me in for one in well over a year so I am afraid I have been rather 'burying my head in the sand' about it all. However,

Starting Gabapentin
Thanks to great advice on here last year, I took a course of ferrous sulfate and my ferritin levels went from 52 to 105. Unfortunately this didn’t help my RLS and my GP doesn’t do a full iron panel and so couldn’t get the other relevant results. I have now opted for Gabapentin but my GP had advised

Intestinal upset (diarrhea, tiredness, slight nausea) from ferrous sulfate?
I suffer from PLM and had low ferritin. I've taken oral iron for some years to keep my ferritin above 100. I've read that one of the adverse effects of iron sulfate can be stomach/intestinal upset. I'm experiencing my 4th episode of intestinal upset in a month. At first I thought it might be food poisoning
