Give up iron supplements, including the ferrous fumarate in gluten free bread.
I know exactly how you feel, even if you are eating gluten-free bread. Unfortunately, most if not all gluten free breads (like most other breads) contain ferrous fumarate to boost their iron concentration. But, unfortunately, the ferrous ion can undergo the Fenton reaction in which the hydrogen peroxide

New interloper from a neighbouring forum - advice please
I’ve put a very potted history in my bio. My question is- of the recent blood results, which would be the most useful to post seeking guidance from you knowledgable folk? I seem to have had everything and chips done by GP- not complaining.- and started a course of B12 injections. But from the results

Extremely scared and anxious
I’m scared and having a
nervous
breakdown
Apart from Flow Cytometry, IgHv mutation status, FISH for CLL, what other tests would be recommended?

is there a good time of day to take your b12 shot
So we have been given permission to do B12 shots at home combined with 200 mg ferrous sulphate and 20,000 of Vit D by our GP who will be doing further diagnostics in the mean time...the one thing I forgot to ask him is if there is a good time of day to take the B12 shots...morning, before bed, before

Is it B12 deficiency, cortisol issues or COVID related?
I had Covid in March and since then have been feeling pretty much all of the rotten signs and symptoms I had when on T4 only as well as some more awful ones indicative of B12 deficiency. My ferritin vit D but especially B12 have all taken a dive. I have always had above range B12 without supplements.

Iron Panel Results High
Hello, I have been reading the posts on this site for a few months and the information has been very beneficial. Thank you all! I stopped taking the prescribed daily dose of Ferrous Sulfate 325 mg 48 hours before getting the Iron lab test. Also, fasted before test and had done 1st thing in the morning

Reducing Pramipexole
I’m hoping this will be of interest to some of you. Any comments really welcome. I am reducing my pramipexole, by half a tablet every 2 to 3 weeks. Currently I’ve cut out 2 x half tablets and about to cut out the third half. I’ve also had a full iron panel blood test. I discussed with the Doctor

ferrous sulphate giving me terrible stomach cramps
I'm really struggling with stomach cramps from ferrous sulphate.. my gp originally had me on 200g 3 times per day... when my level rose from 17 to 60 he said to stop taking them. Within a week my ferritin had dropped to 38 so I'm back to taking just 200g once a day. Has anyone else tried ferogloblin

Depressed and desperate
I haven’t written in a while but I read all of the comments. New neurologist who aligns with the mayo clinic philosophy. After a painful weaning off of pramipexole I was actually doing great on 1200 mg of gabapentin and .50 mg of clonazepam. I take oral iron and my ferritin level is around 52, which

Update
Hi Had a phone call on Friday asking me to contract the surgery, following my over range ferritin results. I've now got to have a TIBC, iron and TSAT blood test. I think I need to be honest with the surgery and say I've was supplementing with iron tablets until recently and this is likely to have caused

Low ferritin question
Hi. Would be grateful for advice. My (adult) daughter had always suffered from anaemia to some extent. Last year her B12 came back at 119 and she had a course of injections. Recently she had been feeling weak, tired and with palpitations and tachycardia, so had blood tests. B12 was 300 and ferritin

Reducing levothyroxine and taking HRT
I would appreciate some thoughts on whether I should reduce my Levothyroxine from 125 daily to 125 x Mon-Fri and 100 x Sat/Sun to bring TSH up a little bit. GP has agreed to this and started me on HRT patch (Evorel Conti 50) to see if that helps with the aches and pains as she thinks thyroid is treated

Low iron due to UC
My last lot of blood tests indicated my iron levels were low. Prescribed Ferrous fumarate and ferrous sulphate. When i do manage to go to the toilet, its black and most of the time its a struggle. Also i pass a dark watery fluid with wind. Is this normal?

Ferrous sulphate tablets 200mg - any advice much appreciated
Hi, I had my iron levels checked which came back as ferritin: 8 ug/L and given a prescription for ferrous sulphate 200mg. The box is saying to take 2-3 times a day on an empty stomach, or avoiding certain foods (milk, grains, tea, coffee) I'm pregnant and having extreme nausea and sickness, nibbling

New bloods - confused about iron study outcomes
Good afternoon Fabulous people – hoping for your wisdom again. I had new bloods on 10th June (8 week check on levo dosage). I knew that the NHS bloods wouldn’t test FT3 and FT4 (even though they were specifically requested on the form by the GP). I ordered a medichecks test to test these privately.

Mycophenolate mental side effects
Started again with one dose on Sunday, one Monday, and I'm climbing the walls and googling symptoms of

... I had to stop hydroxychloroquine around a year ago because of similar symptoms.
