Iron stores (ferritin)

I am already on tablets for low iron (ferritin) but the last few days I’m feeling so unwell again. Has anyone else experienced this and found they had to go on a higher dose of tablets? Thanks

I'm currently on 322mg.. in my last pregnancy I had to get a double dose of this and recently found out my levels are low again so I'll probably be on the double dose again.

Ok thank you! I’ll request to get my bloods done again then! X

Ask for the iron infusion. Just a drip and so much better than tablets x

I saw my consultant yesterday and she told me I was borderline for low iron and redid my bloods. I’ve obviously googled since and do have a few symptoms - have you spoken to your GPs about this to get the tablets/infusion?

I’ve been told I’ve got low iron & I’ve been on the 322mg for a month & a half & when I had my bloods redone my levels haven’t improved so I’m waiting to be seen by a consultant about this. I hope you get sorted.
