Guest guest Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 My 7 yr old has been off the PEG for around 7 mths now and we have been making progress and fine tuning with other management methods and supplements. Question for those who have experience with iron levels, my boy has always been on the lower end of normal with the whole iron range since first tested as a toddler. Its been roughly 2 yrs since his last test, but this ones come in with High (but not excessive)Ferritin and Transferrin levels, but EXTREMELY low Iron and Saturation levels. His diet is somewhat restricted due to food allergies and intolerance's. Not sure if I should be looking for an iron supplement and if so how that will play in the whole constipation thing we're already dealing with?? or whether we're looking at an inflammation type issue and should be trying to eliminate foods?? Any suggestions appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
