This was a surprise to me when I had a panel of blood tests and my ferritin was very low, but haemoglobin was normal A few weeks on iron supplements did lead to a notable improvement day-to-day and reduced fatigue. I always find it surprising how much difference this sort of thing can make.
- lalwanivikas 4y agoDo you buy it over the counter?
- bpye 4y agoAt least here (BC, Canada) you have to talk to a pharmacist to get it, but there is no prescription required. You should also have your levels checked semi-regularly if you're taking supplements to ensure that your levels aren't getting too high.
- rahul1141 4y agoDo you know the root cause? I have exactly the same problem for last two years, and I took Iron supplements for 6 months, still same situation. I do have a autoimmune disease, just wondering if it can cause things like this.
- bpye 4y agoStarting working towards that with my GP but we don’t really know yet, no.
