Helps with timing of meds please.
Hi, I got a prescription yesterday for ferrous fumarate and I'm getting one for B12 but it's a special order so hasn't arrived yet. As I have to take the ferrous fumarate 210g 3 x a day I am wondering how to space things out. I have to take the ferrous fumarate with food so was going to take them at

Advice please - do I need T3?

Iron supplement advice
Hi all, I have low ferritin which I have supplemented using a sachet of spatone a day and brought up from 13 to 26 with the range of 23-300. It is the only vitamin/mineral that's crucial for thyroid function that I'm low in and as I'm still having issues I'd like to try to raise it higher. However, I

New here
I am here to ask about more testing before starting B12 and folate, I spoke to GP today and he has started me on cyanocobalamin tablets and 210mg ferrous fumarate once a day because of low ferritin and complete blood count/iron profile results. Doctor prescribed me folic acid 5mg and ordered coeliac

Supplement advice please
I take 210mg ferrous fumarate due to iron anaemia secondary to heavy periods, 5mg folic acid but no idea which vitamin D to use.

1st Cycle Failed-Help on 2nd
Hello everyone, Yesterday was a really horrible day for me. I was just crying whole day as it was BFN. The clinic was preparing for my body since Nov 2016 since my iron level was low, they started ferrous fumarate and it took 6 months to reach on level after 3 months suppression of my cycle. Still, finally

New and supposedly normal. I beg to differ
Hi I'm reaching out as I'm desperate. I was diagnosed suspected coeliac last year based on gastric symptoms similar to coeliac and anaemia. Despite a year of no gluten and feeling totally zapped mentally and physically I'm now having more blood tests to try and understand what's the hell is wrong with

Unpleasant side effect of Ferrous Fumarate?
GP blood tests showed that I was quite anaemic, and I was put on Ferrous Fumarate, 3 tablets a day. Apologies if this is TMI, but over the last few months, my wee has had a really strong sour smell, although I have no symptoms of urine infection. There is nothing in the information leaflet to suggest
