Sorry you haven’t had any replies. But yes - we quite often hear about people having iron infusions and it’s great that it’s been recognised you need one. So much quicker than taking supplements. It should make you feel better much sooner than you otherwise would.

I’ll see if I can find some other posts about it for you. :)

Most people who’ve had one say it really helped.
