Hi. Back in January I was diagnosed with iron deficiency anaemia and was put on supplements for 3 months, and then to have a follow up blood test a month after finishing the supplements. My ferritin has come up from 5 to 47 (range 30-148) and I was just wondering what sort of response anyone else who has been on iron supplements had? Obviously I’ve had a good response and increase, but 47 to me still seems a little low? I am awaiting the rest of the results to get a full picture but was curious to know how others have responded.
I am not currently on any thyroid treatment but regularly monitored due to being high risk for under active thyroid.
Thanks.
