Iron deficiency

I've been told the same two weeks ago, I've been on the tablets for two weeks now and just starting to feel I have more energy
Starting working pretty much straight away for me x
I was prescribed to take two tablets a day but dropped to one after 4 days as they were making me constipated. I still have way more energy than I did before taking them even with one tablet rather than two! ☺️
They say clinically after one week they start to work and 2 weeks until full effect but I’ve been on the 3 days and they’re making me so much worse so I’m trying to hold out to the 2 week mark aha
I felt a bit better after a week and MUCH better after three. Not long! It’s so horrible though, I feel for you. Try to rest as much as you can till you feel your energy is back up. No harm in trying diet too in the meantime - I.e green veggies, pulses, meat, shellfish and other high iron foods, and reduce or stop tea, coffee, dairy (including eggs), especially when eating high iron foods. A glass of orange juice with a high iron meal should help too x
Took a couple of weeks for me to feel the effects. Xx
