Hi guys, I visited my gp yesterday with my concerns of my iron defiencey(still waiting GI referral) still remaining the same low level for 5 months now, I was currently taking floravital which has been OK but a low dose iron but now I need to bring out the big guns to try and blast it up💪 he has prescribed galfer sugar free syrup as liquid is more easily digested.
Any reviews good or bad.👎👍
Iron liquid without gluten might sound ok - but you still have not seen specialists so
expect you will have to have a test before you see them. Spinach is meant to be good
for iron - but you would have to eat loads of it to make a difference and it has oxelates
in it which may impair absorption. It's a puzzle - may be the carbi is affecting digestion
and liver? If you go to drugs.com and look up the side effects of carbimazole then
you can see a list which might help you. Many drugs lower the vitamin intake so
it is a difficult one. XX
You are eight carbi does affect digestion and destroys vitamins and minerals but the only other alternative is ptu but this has the same affect to so was stuck between 2 evils as I have to take the meds. I'm hoping this iron will do something but at least I know referral is in pipeline and they will look at doing infusion if it does not rise with meds, looking back floravital only maintained where I was it keeping me from going any lower, it was not strong enough to rise it up.
Hey I eat lots of spinach but not Popeye yet!!xx
